banana walnut chocolate chip cookies
Judit and I made a new recipe yesterday. It is a modified version of a modified version of the Consumer Reports chocolate chip cookie recipe. My brother and I modified the original recipe years ago. Those modifications are in brackets ([]). The new modifications (for the banana walnut chocolate chip cookies) are in braces ({}). So basically, this is three recipes in one!
Mix:
- 3/4 Cup white sugar
- Cup brown sugar, packed
Then cream with 2 sticks butter
Add:
- 2 eggs, beat well
- 1 tsp vanilla
Add slowly:
- 2 1/4 Cup flour {2 1/2 cups for banana walnut cookies}
- 1 tsp baking soda [1/2 tsp in modified recipe]
- 1 tsp salt
Add:
- 12 oz chocolate chips
- {2 ripe medium sized bananas}
- {1.5-2 handfuls (maybe 1/2 cup) chopped walnuts}
Bake 375 degrees for 9 minutes [8.5 in modified recipe]
They turned out really moist and slightly fluffy. They are really good hot and still good the day after.

You used to hate it when I put walnuts into the chocolate chip cookies!

Hmm, I wonder if I also used to hate walnuts in chocolate chip cookies — no matter, I dig ’em these days.
Also, I think the “my brother” link may be a touch off :-/.
