I've tried this recipe, it's fool proof and absolutely AMAZING. In fact, I think I have to make then again this weekend because now I'm drooling at work.

Hmm...how do you explain such a glorious taste in your mouth?...Moist, chewy, soft, and buttery come to mind. The perfect mix of every ingredient. It's just a cookie you say? I say, its THE cookie. Siriously Delicious!

I've come to the conclusion that I buy bananas and purposely neglect them. Why? Because then I have no choice but to turn them into bread or muffins. However, on a particular day in January of Twenty-Ten, I looked at my neglected bananas and wanted cookies. And peanut butter. Chocolate. So I came up with my Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Banana Cookies. Don't you just love long titles?

I don't mean to toot my own horn, but okay fine I will. THEY ARE EXCELLENT! Ridiculous. The texture is a cross between cookie/cake/bread/muffin, if that makes sense. Salty peanut butter, a hint of cinnamon, the sweet crunch of chocolate, and of course the banana. My inspiration. Oh neglected bananas, thank you thank you!
