Yield Makes: 36 sandwich cookies

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons milk
1 large egg yolk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon banana extract
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 firm but ripe banana
1 pound bittersweet chocolate chips
3 teaspoons vegetable shortening

Steps:

  • For the cookies: Sift the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder and baking soda together in a medium mixing bowl and set aside. Whisk the butter, milk and egg yolk together in a separate bowl until uniform in color and texture. Add the butter mixture to the flour mixture and stir until it forms a dough. Divide the dough in half and place each half onto a sheet of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Form into two logs about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Remove one dough log at a time from the refrigerator. Slice into 1/4-inch-thick slices and place onto the baking sheets. Bake until firm and set, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside on a rack to cool. Repeat with the second log.
  • For the banana filling: Add the butter and shortening to a small bowl and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined, about 1 1/2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low and add the confectioners' sugar in two batches. Add the extracts and mix until combined; set aside.
  • Slice the banana into 3 dozen 1/8-inch-thick slices.
  • To assemble the cookies: Place a heaping 1/2 teaspoon filling on each cookie. Place a banana slice on the filling, making sure it does not overlap the edge, and then cover with another cookie and press down gently.
  • For the bittersweet ganache: Pour a couple inches of water into the saucepan and heat over medium-low heat to just below a simmer. Put the chocolate and shortening in a metal bowl and place over the hot water to melt, stirring often. If the water starts to steam too much, remove the bowl from the pan to avoid scorching the chocolate. When fully melted, remove from the heat, leaving the bowl of chocolate over the water. Using two forks, dip the sandwich cookies into the melted chocolate, turning gently to coat, and remove to wax paper. Allow to sit at room temperature until the chocolate is completely set, at least 2 hours.

BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies image

All the best parts of chocolate chip cookies - chewy, crispy and tons of chocolate chips - meet all the tender moistness of banana bread in a perfect treat that straddles both worlds. We start off with a bang by simultaneously caramelizing a banana and browning butter for unmatched depth of flavor. From there, it's just one bowl, two baking sheets and a little patience while the dough chills. But the result is worth the journey for a cookie that's equally appropriate for dessert and breakfast alike.

Time 2h20m

Yield 12 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, plus more for the baking sheets
1 large banana
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, optional

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat until foaming. While the butter melts, slice the banana in half across, then in half lengthwise to create 4 long pieces. Once the butter is melted and foaming, swirl the skillet and place the banana pieces cut-side down in the butter.
  • Sauté the bananas, swirling the skillet occasionally, until nicely caramelized on the bottom and the butter smells rich and toasted and is deep golden-brown (see Cook's Note), 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer the bananas and browned butter to a small bowl and add the cinnamon. Use a fork to mash the banana.
  • Whisk the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda together in a medium bowl. Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the bowl and use the whisk to break up and incorporate the sugars into the flour. Add the egg, vanilla extract and the banana mixture and use a wooden spoon to stir until the ingredients are fully incorporated. Add the chocolate chips and then the walnuts if using and stir until just combined.
  • Use a rubber spatula to scrape all the dough into the center of the bowl. Press plastic wrap directly on top of the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours. (The flavors will intensify as the dough chills.)
  • Meanwhile, evenly position 2 racks in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Grease 2 rimmed baking sheets thoroughly with more butter.
  • Use a large ice cream scoop to scoop 6 mounds of dough (or have each one be 3 tablespoons) onto each prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each scoop. Bake the cookies, turning the baking sheets halfway through, until the edges are golden brown and the centers are very puffy and slightly domed, 12 to 14 minutes. (The centers will settle as they cool.) Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Store the cookies at room temperature in a tightly sealed container for up to 5 days.
