Banana  Nut Cookies

 Ingredients:

2 2/3 cups all purpose flour

½ tsp baking soda

¼ tsp salt

1 cup light brown sugar, packed

½ cup sugar

1 cup butter softened

1 large egg

¾ cup ripe bananas, mashed

1 cup walnuts, chopped

1 tablespoon vanilla

1 tsp cinnamon

Glaze

1 tsp orange zest

3 tablespoons orange juice

1 cup powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.  Combine the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.  In a separate bowl, blend the sugars.  Add the butter and mix 1-2 minutes, scraping down the sides halfway through.  Add the egg, banana, and vanilla to the sugar-butter mixture and blend until just smooth.  (Do not over mix!).  Add the flour mixture and the walnuts and blend until just combined. Drop the cookie mixture into Madeleine (shell shaped) molds and back for 24-27 minutes.  Do not over bake!

While cookies are baking, whisk together the glaze ingredients until smooth.  When the cookies are cool, remove them from the molds and glaze them.  Serve immediately.
