Gourmet Banana Nut Cookies with Chocolate Chips

(made from wheat in your blender)
If you don’t have a wheat grinder, then this cookie is for you! I decided to adapt one of my mother-in-law’s best recipes to sneak in some wheat using your blender! These cookies have a great flvor and are very moist (similar consistency to pumpkin cookies). I served these at a dinner party and everyone gobbled them up!


Ingredients:
2/3 C. Brown Sugar
1/3 C. White Sugar
2/3 C. Shortening
2 Eggs (2 T. dehydrated eggs and
1/4 C. water)
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 C. Mashed Bananas
1/4 C. Water
3/4 C. Whole Wheat Kernels
2 C. Flour
2 tsp. Baking Powder
1/4 tsp. Salt
1/4 tsp. Baking Soda
6 oz. or 3/4 C. Chocolate Chips
3/4 C. Chopped Walnuts


Instructions
Beat together sugar and shortening until flffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla, mixing well. Blend wheat kernels, water, and mashed bananas for 4-5 minutes. Add mashed banana alternately with mixture of flur, baking powder, salt and soda; mix well. Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto lightly greased baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees about 10 minutes. Cool on rack, makes 4 to 5 dozen soft, moist cookies. If desired, top with frosting.


Frosting:
1/2 C. Butter, softened
4 C. dehydrated sugar
Dash of Salt
approx. 1/4 C. Milk
(3/4 T. dehydrated milk and
1/4 C. water)
1 tsp. Vanilla
Beat butter, sugar and salt until
thoroughly blended. Add milk and
vanilla. Add more milk as needed.


Tip: For presentation, I also dusted the tops of the frosted cookies with cocoa powder. These cookies are good with out the frosting if you don’t feel like frosting cookies! The dough can be kind of sticky and chilling the dough before baking will help
