I have made these already. I tried with and without the icing. I prefer no icing. :)

WE LOVE these!! I made them and used banana extract in place of vanilla and used the banana butter icing from this site. My 3 yr old daughter loves to make these with me and it is not as sweet as other cookies and at least has a banana in it so I feel not as bad when we make them...:-)

I made this recipe and they were awesome, but we added walnuts to it and it added an extra something.

Great cookies just like Banana bread but much more portable! I add and extra banana and only top with powdered sugar.

i made this recipe low fat- so i used 1/2c greek yogurt instead of the shortning (dont need a full cup) and 2 bananas. I added also 1 teaspoon of baking powder in addition to make them more fluffy. They were SO fluffy- like a muffin top like someone said and low fat is always good! I made them jumbo so didnt have 36 cookies. So good to have one with my coffee for breakfast or for a snack. i will make the full fat ones when i have guests over, because im sure they are better :)

i think these cookies are better without the icing and you can add pecans or walnuts if you want...delicious with coffee or milk

These cookies were so easy and tasted great. I did use 1/2 white sugar and 1/2 brown sugar and put walnuts in them. I also did not use the glaze. My husband loved them too.

These "cookies" were delicious. I had to tweak the recipe a little but they turned out great. I used 2 bananas, brown sugar instead of white, butter instead of shortening, added 1/2 cup more flour and cinn. and nutmeg. They didn't need the frosting. I dusted with powdered sugar. They are so fluffy and light. They are more like a muffin top than a cookie.

I like these better than banana bread! Easy to carry out to the golf course for early morning munching! Great with tea or cocoa! Just the right moistness, and taste just as good as banana bread! I doubled the banana, added a little extra flour, used regular crisco, and added a handful of crushed walnuts. WONDERFUL heavenly soft fluffy texture. I skipped the frosting (they dont need it), will definitely make again!
