Based on this recipe. Makes about 18 cookies, maybe 20 if you don't eat any dough.
1.5 cups flour
1.5 tsp baking powder
scant 1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened but not melted, and whipped
1.5 eggs (I used 1 egg and a half egg's worth of egg replacer)
2 bananas (mine were small)
3/4 tsp vanilla
Mix together the dry ingredients. Add the butter. Add everything else. Put them on cookie sheets -- they'll roughly double in size. Bake at 400 for 5-8 minutes.
I frosted half of them and left the other half plain. I haven't tried the frosted ones yet because I'm waiting for them to dry. For the frosting, I used 2 tbsp butter, 1/2 tbsp half-and-half, 1/2 tsp vanilla, and powdered sugar until it came together. It covered 8 cookies.
They're very basic when they're plain, but I like them. You could add raisins, pineapple, nuts, cherries, peanut butter frosting...
