Ingredients

Cookies

  • 2 ripe bananas bananas ensure they're spotty for maximum sweetness.
  • 1 cup rolled oats they add a chewy texture and are heart-healthy.
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour this helps bind the cookie mixture together.
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar adds moisture and a subtle toffee flavor.
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda creates a light, fluffy structure in the cookies.
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon enhances the cozy flavor profile of the cookies.
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt a pinch balances the sweetness perfectly.

Cream Filling

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened lends a rich, creamy texture to the filling.
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar sweetens the filling while keeping it light and fluffy.
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese gives a tangy kick that complements the sweetness.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract adds warmth and depth to the flavor of the cream.

Instructions

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This step ensures your cookies bake evenly and achieve that lovely golden brown color.
  • Mash the ripe bananas in a bowl. Use a fork for a rustic texture, aiming for a smooth-ish mixture that will add moisture and sweetness to your cookies.
  • Mix together the oats, flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt into the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined.
  • Scoop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown and slightly firm to the touch.
  • Cool the cookies completely on a wire rack.
  • Beat together softened butter, powdered sugar, cream cheese, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
  • Spread the cream on half of the cooled cookies and sandwich them with the remaining cookies. Press gently.

Notes

Ensure bananas are fully ripe with plenty of brown spots. Avoid overmixing to maintain a soft cookie texture. Use a cookie scoop for uniformity.
