Maybe I should've named this blog A Cup of Cookies. I do seem to share a lot more cookie recipes than recipes that involve sprinkles, after all. It's just that when it comes to baking, cookies are one of my favorite things to whip up. If I had to list my favorite things in baking, sprinkles and cookies would have to share the first spot. But let's talk about these chocolate chip banana cookies now.
This is another recipe I've used for years. I've made these banana cookies several times to get the perfect (for me anyway) recipe. I wouldn't even be able to tell you which recipe I used to make them in the first place, first because it's been so long I've forgotten, and second because I've changed ingredient measurements.
This is the perfect recipe to make if you want to use up that ripe banana that's been seating on the counter for a week. Now, I call these cookies chocolate chip banana cookies, but I do use chocolate chunks. I've said before in this best ever chocolate chip cookies recipe post that I cut up a block of chocolate to get chunks, because it's cheaper and it's got a way better chocolate to cookie bite ratio ;) You can obviously use either.
Now, don't expect crispy cookies. These banana cookies have a bit of a cake-like texture, and they'll stay soft and moist even after a couple days on the counter. :)

    applesauce tart recipe
    I'm not even sure this should count as a recipe. I mean, want to know how to make an easy French apple tart ? Here's what you should do : get a pie crust (I used a puff pastry crust but you can use whichever you want), pour some applesauce in your pie crust and cover with apple slices. Bake for about 40 minutes. There. You have a French apple tart. I'm not sure what else there is to say, really.

    I’ve shared this cake recipe before, with this Easter cake, or this nectarine layer cake, and I thought it was time it had its own post.
    You see, I’ve used this cake recipe for four years now. It’s my go-to whenever I have to make a layer cake for a birthday or another special occasion (see this other Easter cake).
