INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 cups Butter ; melted
2 cups Granulated sugar
3/4 cup Bananas ; mashed, very ripe (2 medium or 3 small)
4 teaspoons Baking soda
1 teaspoon Salt
2 Eggs ; beaten
4 cups Flour
2 cups walnuts or pecans ; finely chopped (measure after chopping)
1/2 cup Granulated sugar ; for later

INSTRUCTIONS

Melt butter in a large microwaveable bowl. Stir in the sugar, beaten eggs, baking soda, and salt. Mash bananas until they're smooth. Add the banana puree and mix thoroughly. Mix in the flour and then the nuts. Cover your bowl and refrigerate it for 4 hours.

When you're ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350, rack in the middle position.

Roll the chilled dough into walnut-sized balls with your hands. (This dough is quite sticky - you can wear plastic gloves if you like or wet your hands slightly so the dough won't stick to them.) Put 1/2 cup white sugar in a small bowl and roll the balls in it. Place the dough balls on a greased cookie sheet, 12 to a sheet. Press them down just a little so they won't roll off on the floor when you put them in the oven. Then return your bowl to the refrigerator and let it chill until it's time to roll more.

Bake for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees, or until they're lightly golden in color. They'll flatten out, all by themselves. Let them cool for 2 minutes on the cookie sheet and then move them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
