Banana Oatmeal Caramel Cookies
Yield: Makes about 2 dozen cookies
Ingredients:
1
package (18 ounces) refrigerated turtle cookie dough

2
ripe bananas, mashed

1-1/3
cups uncooked old-fashioned oats

2/3
cup all-purpose flour

1/2
cup semisweet chocolate chips



Preparation:
1.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease cookie sheets. Let dough stand at room temperature about 15 minutes.

2.
Combine dough, bananas, oats and flour in large bowl; beat until well blended. Drop dough by heaping tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto prepared cookie sheets; flatten slightly.

3.
Bake 16 to 18 minutes or until edges are brown and centers are set. Cool on cookie sheets 1 minute. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.

4.
Place chocolate chips in small resealable food storage bag. Microwave on MEDIUM (50%) 1 minute; knead bag lightly. Microwave and knead at additional 30-second intervals until chocolate is completely melted. Cut off tiny corner of bag. Drizzle melted chocolate over cookies. Let stand until set.


Variation: Use triple chocolate cookie dough instead of the turtle dough.
