BANANA COOKIES WITH ORANGE ICING



Banana Cookies with Orange Icing image

If you like banana bread you will love this cookie. Be sure to use very ripe bananas- because that is where the best flavor comes from. You can all nut or peanut butter to the batter if desired even a few mini chocolate chips. Do your own thing. By placing the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before making the cookie they will be crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Land O'Lakes and me

BANANA CAKE WITH ORANGE ICING



Banana Cake With Orange Icing image

Another great banana cake but with a blast of citrus; gives it an added zing! It is lower in fat than some and I quite often make it without the icing so it is not too sweet either. I often add something extra as well...often a handful of dried cranberries really sets it off. I usually bake it in a tube pan but that is my personal preference. This recipe originated in "Lighthearted Everyday Cooking" by Anne Lindsay.
