Make these super easy Banana Bread Chocolate Chip Cookies for your next party. They're the perfect blend of sweetness and texture, with rich chocolate in a soft, cakey banana cookie.
With a stand mixer or hand mixer, cream together butter and sugars until blended. Mix in vanilla, cinnamon, egg, and mashed banana.
Slowly add flour into mixture until incorporated.
Gently fold in chocolate chips until just blended.
Spoon about 3 tablespoon of mixture per cookie onto a cookie sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
Bake at 350 degrees for 22-24 minutes, until the tops of the cookies start to turn golden brown.
Notes
If you don't have a cookie scoop, use the "two spoon trick" to scoop cookies onto your baking pan. Scoop the dough out of the bowl with one spoon and use the other to scrape it onto the baking sheet.
Yield: This recipe makes approximately 24 cookies, so plan on either using 2 baking sheets or baking your cookies in two batches.
To ripen bananas for use in this recipe, simply pop them in a 300-degree oven for 15-20 minutes. The skin will turn extra brown, but the inside will be softened perfectly!
You can also use thawed frozen bananas in this recipe.
