Best cookies ever...

My Grandma Bunker used to always have banana oatmeal chocolate chip cookies around the house and we all loved them. Now that she is gone, they remind me of her. Well, we had some bananas going bad and I decided to make them. Richard helped out and Hannah watched on while we did. They had fun and enjoy the cookies, but not near as much as I do.
When we make cookies Richard likes to watch them bake. So I turn the oven light on and he grabs his stool.
Hannah just hung out watching us. She is getting so funny!
If you would like to try these tasty treats here is the recipe:
2-3 over ripe bananas
3/4 cup butter/margarine
1 egg
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
3/4 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cups flour
2 cups oats
1-2 cups chocolate chips
Mix together well, bake in 4oo degree oven for 10-12 minutes.
They are best enjoyed with milk! (And I heard recently that milk helps the body absorb the nutrients in oatmeal so it becomes a semi-healthy snack.)
They are also amazing frozen, just give it a try! :)

  2. I was craving something! This would be perfect. I always crave something homebaked when it's raining.
