Banana Jumbo Cookies

---

This is a cookie that my family has been making for a long time. It is incredibly moist and chewy cookie. We sometimes top it with a frosting but it tastes just as great alone.

---

Steps

---

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

---

Mix shortening , sugar , and eggs well.

---

Stir in bananas , buttermilk , and vanilla extract.

---

Blend flour and baking soda.

---

Stir into other ingredients.

---

Blend in nuts.

---

Chill 1 hour.

---

The dough will still be slightly sticky even after chilling.

---

For jumbo cookies , drop rounded tablespoonfuls onto lightly greased baking sheet.

---

For smaller cookies use a teaspoon.

---

Bake at 375 for about 7-10 minutes or until light golden brown.

Leave unfrosted or frost with favorite flavored frosting.
