Banana Cookies

When I was in Yellowstone, I mentioned I had a bazillion black bananas in my freezer, waiting to be made into banana bread. Jayne Garner heard me and suggested banana cookies instead. This is her recipe. I've made it twice since them, tripling the recipe each time (big family, lot of neighbors, etc...). They're wonderful. Give them a try.
