    Recipe Introduction


    Invite your favorite monkey to share a banana cookie creation! These banana-flavored cookies are frosted with a yummy banana frosting for a double banana treat.

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup granulated sugar
    1 cup butter or margarine, softened
    1 1/2 teaspoons banana extract
    1 egg
    2 1/3 cups Gold Meda all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    Granulated sugar
    Banana Frosting (below)
    2 tubes (0.68 oz each) Betty Crocker chocolate-flavored or black decorating gel

    Recipe



    1. Heat oven to 375°„F.
    2. In large bowl, beat 1 cup granulated sugar and the butter on medium speed until smooth. Beat in banana extract and egg. Gradually beat or stir in flour and baking soda.
    3. Roll level tablespoonfuls of dough into 6-inch ropes. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet; curve slightly to make banana shapes. Flatten to about 1/4 inch with bottom of glass dipped in granulated sugar.
    3. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or just until edges begin to brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.
    4. Make Banana Frosting. Spread frosting on each cookie. Outline each cookie with decorating gel and put a line lengthwise down the center of each cookie to look like a banana design. About 40 cookies.

    Banana Frosting
    4 cups powdered sugar
    1/4 to 1/3 cup milk
    3 tablespoons light corn syrup
    1 1/2 teaspoons banana extract
    8 to 12 drops yellow food color
    In large bowl, stir together powdered sugar, 1/4 cup milk, the corn syrup, banana extract and food color with spoon. Stir in enough remaining milk to make frosting smooth and spreadable.
