Achieving good tasting cookie.

The original thought was to make cookies with just 3 ingredients, but they lacked the sweetness and texture. The core of the recipe is just ripe bananas and ground oatmeal. My goal was to make this cookie something close to chocolate fudge cookie. Using low fat cocoa powder like Hershey Cocoa Powder or black cocoa powder have less cocoa butter, this keeps fat down to minimum. The next step is to add some baking soda to help the cookies leavening. The cookies taste was good and moist having great texture, but was not very sweet. This same recipe for Chocolate Banana Oatmeal Cookies could be transformed into Oatmeal Raisin Cookie. Simply by eliminating the cocoa powder and chocolate chips and replacing with some chocolate chips with raisins and cinnamon. Now you have super moist Banana Oatmeal Raisin Cookies that are guilty free of high sugar and fat in a traditional cookie.
