Peanut Butter Chocolate Banana Cookies
May 16, 2011 § 49 Comments
Peanut Butter. Chocolate. Banana. Bacon. Elvis was definitely onto something when he discovered this awesome combination. Originally I was planning on making a full-fledged Elvis cookie complete with crumbled bacon. Unfortunately, I was all out of bacon and was in no mood to run to the store. That’s right. I needed those cookies and I needed them fast. Another chocolate craving, perhaps? 
No. I don’t think it was just a chocolate craving. It was worse. It was a chocolate and peanut butter craving. The most dangerous of the cravings. Obviously I couldn’t deny it, so I just went with it. Sans bacon. It was fabulous! 
Peanut Butter Chocolate Banana Cookies
“Peanut butter, chocolate, and bananas come together in this moist and chewy cookie. Each bite is like a piece of peanut butter heaven.”
Ingredients:
- ¾ cup peanut butter
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup chopped banana chips
- ½ cup chocolate chips
- ¼ cup chopped peanuts
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350ºF and grease a large baking sheet. Set aside.
- Place peanut butter, sugar, and egg in a medium mixing bowl. Mix until well-combined.
- Stir in banana chips, chocolate, chips, and peanuts until mixed throughout the cookie dough. Form dough into small round balls and place about an inch apart from each other on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool and enjoy!
Yield: 1 dozen cookies
Mmmm…Mmmm…Mmmm! Never one to toot my own horn (clearly) I must admit that these cookies were pretty stellar! But, don’t just take it from me, even my mom likes them and she doesn’t even like peanut butter. She is never one to lie about my food either. She tells it like it is, which is a good thing…most of the time. Most importantly, however, is the fact that I ate one of these before my last Track meet and PR’ed in the 1600! In other words, these cookies are amazing! I highly recommend you make them!
Have a great day! 
OH my gosh that looks delicious

I couldn’t eat those cookie because I would’ve polished off the dough! Ok, restraint, I could do it.

Congrats on your PR! And those cookies sound absolutely delicious! I really don’t think you can beat anything with peanut butter, banana, and chocolate.

peanut butter banana and chocolate is THE BEST COMBO EVER!
If you swap out the peanut butter for almond butter then I’m definitely on board (allergies!). There’s no combination I love more than AB, banana, and chocolate.
Congrats on your PR!
Sooo need to make these!! I make flourless pb cookies often, but I have never thought to add anything else to them but chocolate chips! My husband would totally love these!!
Peanut butter and banana in a cookie! Wow! Girl your a genius.
Wow wow wow! These look so awesome! I love that they’re a take on the classic 3-ingredient peanut butter cookie. So cool.
Mmmm, yes these look sooooo good! Peanut butter + banana + chocolate in a cookie must be HEAVEN!
Were they fluffy like cake, or chewy like a cookie? I wonder because there’s no leavening!
OH, MY, GOD. these cookies look delish! any mix of pb+banana+choc is by far the BEST in my book! great recipe girl!
These look delectable! And I’m loving the straightforward recipe… flourless! I seriously die over this flavor combo, so I’m going to HAVE to try these.

I’m in shock that your mom doesn’t like peanut butter!! My sister claimed to hate it until about a year ago. She had no idea what she was missing!

Random question, do people in your real life know about this blog?
A select few people (family & close friends) know about the blog, but it’s not like I specifically ‘hide’ it or anything. I just don’t advertise it to my friends. If they happen to find out, so be it!
Can’t wait to check out your blog, Katherine!
Heck yes…these cookies look awesome! I love it when good recipes don’t have too many ingredients. Especially if I have them all on hand…thanks!
yum!!! these look delicious!
YUM. I’m SO making a vegan version of these babies!
Your blog is lovely, by the way!
Oh my gosh. I LOVE THESE!!!!
Hi. I found your blog a few days ago and I want to try all your recipes. So today, I tried those cookies and I need to make another batch, because my family ate all of them in 15 minutes! They’re absolutely delicious!
I had to translate the recipe in french (I’m french and I can read and speak english easily, but when I’m cooking, I always need the recipe to be in french ^^’) and as I’m part of a livejournal community in french, where we post our favorites recipes, I wanted to ask you if it was ok for me to post it there (with credit, ok course!)?
That’s fine! I’m so glad you enjoyed them!
