Mrs Fields Banana Nut Cookies

MRS Fields Banana Nut Cookies recipe image
These Mrs. Fields-style Banana Nut Cookies are a decadent twist on the classic chocolate chip cookie. The dough is enriched with mashed ripe bananas and a splash of banana liqueur, creating a moist, tender crumb with a distinct tropical sweetness. Generous amounts of semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts provide bursts of rich cocoa and nutty crunch in every bite. The cookies bake up soft and chewy, with edges that turn slightly golden brown. They are perfect for afternoon snacking, dessert bars, or as a sweet treat to share with friends and family. The combination of warm spices from the brown sugar and the fruity banana notes makes these cookies an irresistible comfort food.
