Kids in the Kitchen: Chocolate Chip Banana Cookies

This is one of our families favorites!  We had some bananas that were starting to turn, so the kids and I made a batch of chocolate chip banana cookies.   These cookies are melt in your mouth good!  The recipe is as follows:
 
 Combine: 
  2 1/2 cups of all purpose flour
  1 tsp of baking powder
  1/2 tsp of salt
  1/4 tsp of baking soda

In a separate bowl cream together:
   2/3 cups of softened butter
   1/2 cup of brown sugar
   1/2 cup of white sugar
 
then add:
2 eggs to the creamed mixture.  Mix.
3 ripe bananas

Combine both bowls (dry and cream mixture)....lightly fold together.

Stir in 2 cups of chocolate chips.

We baked them on greased cookies sheets at 400 degrees for 12 minutes.  This recipe made 21 total...probably could have gotten a few more...some were fairly large.

Finished product!

Happy baking and enjoying time with your kids in the kitchen! Stay tuned for next week...another family favorite...Italian meatloaves and pizza on a bun!
