these sound so good! i think i would dunk them in milk and peanut butter, and probably end up eating waaay too many of them!!!!
Start packing...I'm impressed that you had a bag of banana chips and didn't nibble away on them. I never have enough left to bake with.
ReplyDeleteYummy cookies!
That is a keeper!
ReplyDeleteyummy ... these look incredible. i have everything I need too. in fact, i have enough bananas to make about 50 batches of these. that would be very very bad.

You're right girl, Otis has nothin' on you. Especially since Otis is often packaged and then just reheated in a little toaster oven. Here your cookies are, warm, gooey, fresh....Otis could never compete with the likes of you! Good luck tonight and enjoy your Everclear. Girl, you know how to party! That would put me under the table!
ReplyDeleteGood luck, Em!
ReplyDeleteAnd delicious cookies, I like how it looks studded with chocolate chips.
Good luck Emily!
ReplyDeleteOttis, who?!

ReplyDeleteMan, these look delicious, Emily! I'm crossing my fingers that you stay steady in first. Tall glass of Everclear, eh? You must be super stressed. Here's hoping your cookies and Everclear make the end of the week a bit less stressful!
ReplyDeletethanks for all the oat recipes. Have a HUGE box of the old-fashioned and am trying like heck to get them into my 18 month old. These delish recipies will help!
ReplyDeletehello, glistening, slightly-melted chocolate chips. won't you be mine? :)
ReplyDeletei am loving all these banana cookie recipes floating around the blogosphere! great for all my rotting bananas!
ReplyDeleteI've so got to try these cookies and everclear. Wiki says its like 190 proof and supposedly isn't as likely to leave a hangover because of lack of congeners.
ReplyDeleteThose cookies look freaking amazing. Hands down one of the best things I've seen on here! Totally my own opinion, but still...
ReplyDeleteAnd Good Luck!

ReplyDeleteHi Emily,
ReplyDeleteI found your blog thru Lauren's Bite (yes I am Twilight Obsessed) But I am also Food Obsessed...so I got hooked on your blog as well! It is so fun and cute! Alright, well I finally had a week off of work and time to cook- so I picked this cookie recipe because I LOVE all of the ingrediants. Well I tried it out and I AM IN LOVE!! So good! I put the dough in mini muffins pans, so the cookies are bite size....so perfect! Just wanted to let you know I love your blog and now I am in love with your cookies...Can't wait to see you on the Bravo oatmeal challenge (TOP CHEF is one of my favorite shows) I voted for you a ton!! Can't wait to see all the other exciting things you'll come up with!
Hi Alliejocom! Thanks for the nice comment! I'm going to stop by your blog shortly.
ReplyDeleteI've loved looking through all of your oatmeal recipes, so I wouldn't mind if you kept them comin!
ReplyDeleteMM, those look so good. Love the blog.
ReplyDeleteYum, yum, yum and thank you! I baked those this weekend (leaving out the banana chips that I did not have) and people loved them, especially the not-so-loving-cookies people who thought they were great "adult cookies". These were the highlight of a picnic in Central Park yesterday so you get the credit for it!!
ReplyDeleteI just made these.. they are SOOOO good!!!! I am definitely going to make them again, probably every time I have a ripe banana. Thanks for the recipe!! I just discovered this blog yesterday and I've had so much fun looking at all of your amazing recipes. Thank you for sharing them!!
