Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies

               Although my chocolate chip banana cookies are relatively new compared to most famous family recipes, it has become a favorite and a tradition in the Nemergut household. My mom started making these when I was in lower school. I remember constantly asking her to make them because they were so good and not really filling. She makes them almost every holiday, always on my birthday, and usually whenever I ask. She doesn’t mind me eating them either because they are fairly healthy containing oats and bananas.

                There are a few funny stories that I associate when I think of these cookies but one really shows how good they actually are. When I went on the baseball trip sophomore year, my mom made a batch of these cookies. I remember giving a few out to kids who saw me eating them and asked. One day when I went out, they searched and found the batch of cookies. When I got back, I found that my cookies were gone. I quickly called the cops in hopes that they would be recovered but they said they couldn’t help me. I may be exaggerating a little but from then on I made sure I keep some extras hidden for myself in case they are all stolen and/or eaten.

                Making the cookies was interesting because I got to experience firsthand the work that goes into making them. They weren’t too difficult to make and filming the process was even more fun. I hope you enjoy the video and more importantly the cookies.
