Ingredients

  • 2 large bananas mashed
  • 11 ounces dark chocolate chunk morsels
  • 1 1/3 cups walnuts rough chopped
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup butter softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees and line a cookie sheet pan with parchment paper
  • Start by adding butter to a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer until fluffy
  • Add sugar, egg, egg yolk, salt, brown sugar, sugar and vanilla to the bowl and mix util well combined
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking soda and then incorporate slowly into the butter/sugar batter
  • Once everything is combined, fold in chocolate chunks, banana and walnuts until mixed
  • Using a 1/4 cup measuring scoop (yes, these are big!) drop large scoops of cookies onto the cookie sheet, leaving 2 inches of space in-between each of the cookies
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes (they will still be very soft so be gentle!)
  • Remove from oven and let cool on cookie sheet 1 minute before moving the cookies to a cooling rack
  • Store in an airtight container with parchment paper seperating the layers .. not a zip-top bag... these are super soft baked and my first batch all stuck together in a bag, even though they were completely cooled
