It's September! This year really is going a lot faster than I thought it would, but I am not complaining, believe me. The rest of the year can fly by and I will be as happy as a clam. Only four more major holidays until my better half comes home and we will drive half way across country to start our new adventure!
These cookies are so great for a sweet snack. My only problem was that I did not have baking soda and could only find baking powder. I tried the substitute with 2 teaspoons baking powder, but I feel like it didn't come out as it should have. Baking soda is what makes your cakes and cookies rise, so it's really important in a baking recipe. I would definitely makes these again though, but this time I am going to make sure I have baking soda!! If you love banana's please try these cookies!
