These are my most favorite way to use up speckled bananas. They have a cake like texture.
.
1 c softened butter
2 eggs
1 c mashed bananas
1 c sugar
½ c butter milk or sour milk
1 t vanilla
3 c flour
1 ½ t baking soda
½ t salt
1 c chopped nuts (optional)
.
Mix well, shortening, sugar and eggs. Stir in bananas, buttermilk and vanilla. Blend dry ingredients. Add to wet ingredients. Chill at least 1 hour. Heat oven to 375°F. Bake 10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned, and cookie is firm to the touch.
