Ingredients
- ½ cup butter, brought to room temperature
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 1 overripe banana
- 2 eggs, brought to room temperature
- 2 ½ t vanilla
- 1 package (3.4 oz.), Jell-O banana crème pudding mix
- 1 t baking soda
- 2 cups flour
- 2/3 cup white chocolate chips*
- You can also substitute chocolate chips here if you’d prefer – chocolate and banana go great together!
Directions
In a large bowl, mix together your butter and dark brown sugar until smooth. Add in the banana, eggs and vanilla mix again until just combined.
Now we’re just going to slowly add in the dry ingredients. Start with the banana crème pudding mix and mix until just combined. Then do the same with the baking soda. Finally add in the flour (not all at once or it’ll go flying everywhere) and mix until well combined.
Pour in the white chocolate chips and stir (don’t mix) until well distributed. That’s it for the batter!
Line baking sheets with parchment paper and put tablespoon-sized balls of dough on the sheet, 6 to a sheet.
Bake at 350 for about 10 minutes or until the edges and bottoms are a nice golden brown.
Remove the tray from the oven and let the cookies rest on it for a couple minutes, then move them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Makes about 3 dozen delicious, soft banana pudding cookies!
