I love them! They’re kind of puffy and light but also sweet and delicious. Thanks!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 cup mashed bananas (2.5 or two large, one small)
1 tsp baking soda
2 1/3 cups flour
pinch salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 cup butterscotch chips

Spray cookie sheets or line with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350.

Cream butter and sugar. Add egg and mix till light and fluffy.

Mash bananas and mix with baking soda. Let sit for two minutes.

Mix banana mixture into butter mixture. In separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon. Mix flour mixture in banana-butter mixture just until combined. Fold in chips.

Bake for 11-13 minutes or until edges are golden-brown. Cool on wire racks.

My son had a birthday party to go to, and my husband had to go visit his dad in the hospital, so they went off at 12:30 and my daughter and I made bagels and started chocolate cookies while waiting for her friend to come by for a playdate. Then they played all afternoon. When my son came home, he played Webkinz happily while the girls played elsewhere. I caught up on some e-mail, started a new recipe (carrot-spinach-rice stew via Mark Bittman’s blog) and found out classes are canceled tomorrow because of swine flu. Then I started answering all the e-mails from students wondering if the paper is still due tomorrow. :)
