Since it’s going to be gross and rainy for the next few days, you’re going to need something warm and melty. I found this amazing recipe which makes the softest, most muffin-like cookies I’ve ever tasted – and I had to share it with our readers!

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups bananas, mashed

1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF/200ºC.
2.Sift and combine the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda together in a medium bowl.
3. Use a mixer to cream the sugars and butter together in a large bowl.
4. Thoroughly combine the eggs, vanilla, and mashed bananas in the butter mixture.
5. Slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon and add the chocolate chips in last.
6. Place spoonfuls of the dough on a pre-greased or Parchment paper layered cookie sheet.
