I love making banana bread but I thought I would change it up a bit and make banana bread cookies.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a cookie pan with parchment paper or lightly spray with vegetable spray

3 ripe bananas (Mashed)
2   cups flour
1/2 cup of white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup of unsalted butter (room temperature)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup white chocolate chips

In a standing mixer beat together the sugars and butter until fluffy, add the eggs, vanilla extract and bananas. Mix well. Then on low speed mix in the flour, salt and baking powder until just combined. Stir in the white chocolate chips. Drop Tablespoon size dough onto the parchment paper keeping the it 1 1/2″ apart and bake for 12 minutes or until the edges turn slightly brown. Cool 10 minutes then move the cookies onto a wire cooling rack.

Brown Sugar Icing – 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 1/4 cup milk, 1 cup brown sugar and 1 cup confectioners sugar. Combine the butter, milk and brown sugar in a sauce pan over medium heat and allow to boil for 2 -3 minutes. Remove from the stove and whisk in the sugar. Allow to cool slightly for 5 minutes then drizzle onto cookies.
