Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies

Pin It
This recipe is from my favorite recipe finder website www.allrecipes.com. It said "High Altitude" Banana Chocolate Chip cookies but it says for a lower elevation to "increase baking powder to two teaspoons, and reduce flour to three and one quarter cups." They are cakey and soft and delicious! My kids absolutely love these too! Be careful not to overcook these or they will get dry really fast. You only want the edges to be a very light golden brown. The top doesn't need to brown.
