Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2️⃣ Cream Butter and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter-flavored shortening and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 2 minutes.
3️⃣ Add Egg and Vanilla:
Add 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the mixture. Beat for an additional 2 minutes to combine.
4️⃣ Incorporate Mashed Bananas:
Gently fold in 1 cup of mashed overripe bananas into the mixture, ensuring it’s well incorporated.
5️⃣ Mix Dry Ingredients:
In another bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
6️⃣ Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined to avoid overmixing the dough.
7️⃣ Scoop and Bake:
Use a cookie scoop (greased with nonstick cooking spray) to drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 8-9 minutes or until the edges are golden.
8️⃣ Prepare the Frosting:
While the cookies cool, beat cream cheese and butter together until fluffy.
Add any remaining ingredients for the frosting (such as powdered sugar, vanilla, etc.) and beat until smooth.
9️⃣ Frost the Cookies:
Once the cookies have completely cooled, spread the frosting on top and serve.
