CHOCOLATE, BANANA AND PECAN COOKIES



Chocolate, Banana and Pecan Cookies image

Yield Makes about 24

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 tbsp/110g unsalted butter, at room temperature, cubed
1/2 cup plus 2 tsp/110g caster sugar
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1cup/125g all-purpose flour
½ tsp baking powder
3 1/2 tsp/20g Dutch-processed cocoa powder
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
3/4 cup/100g chocolate chips (70% cocoa solids), or 3 1/2 oz/100g dark cooking chocolate, cut into 1/4 inch/0.5cm pieces
2 oz/55g mashed banana (about ½ small banana)
1 1/3 cup/165g pecan halves, finely chopped
3/4 cup plus 1 tbsp/100g confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Place the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer with the paddle attachment in place. Beat on a medium-high speed until light and fluffy, then gradually add the egg and continue to beat until incorporated. Sift the flour, baking powder, cocoa powder, cinnamon and salt into a bowl, then add to the butter and sugar. Mix on a low speed for about 15 seconds, then add the chocolate and banana. Beat until combined, then transfer to the fridge for 2 hours to firm up.
  • When firm, use your hands to form the dough into 3cm round balls, about 20g each: you might need to wash your hands once or twice when making them, if they get too sticky. Place the pecans in a medium bowl and drop the balls into the nuts as you form them, rolling them around so that they are completely coated and pressing the nuts in so that they stick.
  • Line a baking tray with baking parchment, place the cookies on the tray - there is no need to space them apart at this stage - and transfer to the fridge for at least an hour.
  • When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 190°C or 375°F /170°C OR 350*F Fan/Gas Mark 5. Line two baking trays with baking parchment.
  • Place the icing sugar in a bowl and roll the cookies in the icing sugar, pressing it in as you go so that it sticks well. Place on the lined baking trays, spaced 2-3cm apart, and flatten the cookies to 1cm thick.
  • Bake for 10 minutes. They will be soft to the touch when they come out of the oven, so allow them to cool on the tray for 10 minutes before gently transferring to a wire rack. These can be served warm, when they will be a little gooey in the centre, or set aside until completely cool.

White Chocolate Skillet Cookie with Bananas and Pretzels image

Provided by Eric Greenspan

Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/3 cup (5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon) unsalted butter, softened, plus more for greasing
Nonstick vegetable oil spray, optional
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 banana, sliced thin
1 cup chopped white chocolate
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup crushed pretzels
1/2 cup cold heavy cream
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Steps:

  • For the cookie: Position an oven rack in the lowest position in the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Thoroughly grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with butter (or use a stainless-steel skillet coated with nonstick vegetable oil spray).
  • Mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until no large lumps remain, about 1 minute.
  • Stir together the egg and vanilla in a large bowl. Fold in the banana and white chocolate. Combine the flour and baking soda in a separate large bowl until thoroughly combined. Add the egg mixture and butter mixture to the flour mixture and thoroughly combine. Fold in the pretzels until evenly distributed.
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared skillet and pat into an even layer with damp hands so the batter extends to the edges of the skillet.
  • Bake until the outer edges are browned and slightly puffed, 20 to 25 minutes (15 to 18 minutes for stainless steel). Let cool.
  • For the whipped cream: Beat the heavy cream and peanut butter in a large cold mixing bowl with an electric mixer until it starts to thicken, about 1 minute. Gradually beat in the powdered sugar, then continue beating until stiff peaks form (when you pull the beater up, peaks will form and not fall over), 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Slice and serve the cookie with the whipped cream.
