It never fails that I buy bananas with good intentions of building up my potassium, then they get too ripe before I get around to eating them. I usually make banana bread, which I don't make very good, and end up throwing most of it away. So . . . today it was Banana Cookies! These are light and airy and have just a great banana taste.
