Preparation

Step 1

Oven to 350°F. Spray cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray.

In large bowl mash banana. Add egg, oil, nutmeg and half the dry cake mix to the bowl and beat on medium speed until well blended. Stir in remaining dry cake mix with wooden spoon just until combined and moistened. Stir in the chopped nuts if using.

Drop by teaspoonfuls on cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart.

Bake 10 to 13 minutes until the center is just barely set when lightly touched with your fingertip and edges are firm.

Remove from the oven, allow cookies to cool for one minute then transfer to wire racks.
