To make the Banana Cookies, first, you have to peel the bananas and mash them well. Put the peeled bananas in a bowl and do it. The banana is the main ingredients you are going to use in this item.  You also have to add one teaspoon baking soda to the mashed banana. You need to mix it well and keep it aside for 5 minutes.

After that, you have to take another bowl and pour butter into it.  Add one cup sugar to it and blend it well using a spoon. You have to mix them well and when they are well blended, make sure that the mixture is light and downy.  After that, add the egg and mix it with the butter. Keep mixing it with the spoon until the mixture is fluffy.

When the mixture is soft, add the banana pulp to it and blend it well.  After that, make another mixture of flour and spices. Add a pinch of salt to it and mix well.  Now, filter this mixture and pour it into the previously made banana-butter mixture. You have to stir this mixture well to make all ingredients blended properly.

After that, take baking sheets and arrange parchment paper on them.  Then take the chocolate chips and arrange them finely on the parchment paper.  Now, take the mixture and pour it over the chocolate chips properly.

Now you have to bake the cookies. Before you start baking them, make sure that the baking sheets are clean before you bake. Use one baking sheet at a time. Make the sheets cool completely before you arrange the cookie mixture on them (it avoid spreading of the mixture in the sheets) You have to bake them in a medium flame. Keep each one of them on heat at least for 12 minutes. When they get a light brown colour, take them out and arrange in a serving plate. You can serve them when they are cool.
