Friends, we have another delicious week planned out to share with our followers. Welcome to #BrunchWeek 2019! I will be debuting 3 brand new recipes that will be perfect for brunch time or any time for that matter. In case you’ve missed the other posts, I’ll link them below!
Brunch recipes can be everything from sweet, to savory, to decadent to breakfasty and everything in between. There’s an amazing variety for #BrunchWeek, not to mention an amazing giveaway thanks to some fantastic sponsors. All of the details are listed below.
Let’s get right to it, today’s recipe is for Chocolate Banana Cookies with Sprinkles. Yes, I went straight for sweet as we’re diving into brunch. Personally, I like a taste of sweet with brunch and Chocolate Banana Cookies with Sprinkles definitely fits the bill.
Chocolate Banana Cookies with Sprinkles are really easy to prepare and can be made the day before. Add them to your list of recipes to use when you have overripe bananas on the counter. There’s a delicious glaze that gets drizzled on top (or you can use it more like a frosting).
And of course, there are sprinkles! I found the perfect assortment of sprinkles called “Banana Bread” from Sweets & Treats! Aren’t they just the cutest on these cookies? They have such an amazing selection of fun sprinkles, stop over and order some today!

Some tips for making Chocolate Banana Cookies with Sprinkles:
- Use parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- I used a 1 Tablespoon cookie scoop. This recipe made 3 dozen cookies.
- I drizzled the “frosting” over the top. You can frost the cookies traditionally too or drizzle chocolate sauce on them.
- As soon as you frost or drizzle the cookies, sprinkle on the sprinkles before the frosting sets.
- Allow frosting to set prior to storing cookies. I keep them in a resealable container.
Chocolate Banana Cookies with Sprinkles are such a great way to enjoy chocolate. An easy recipe that tastes great, you'll love baking them. Preheat oven to 350° degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper, set aside. In small bowl mash banana with fork, set aside. Combine together in mixing bowl: butter, and sugar. Beat until well combined with electric mixer. Add mashed banana and vanilla extract to butter mixture. Beat with electric mixer until combined. In separate bowl mix together: baking powder, salt and flour. Add 1/3 of flour mixture to wet ingredients, mix well. Continue adding flour mixture by thirds until all is mixed in. Mixture will be thick. Add in melted chocolate chips, mix until thoroughly combined. Using cookie scoop, place scoops onto parchment paper lined baking sheets. Bake for approximately 8 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool thoroughly on wire rack. FOR FROSTING: In small saucepan over medium heat melt butter. Whisk into melted butter cocoa powder and milk. Remove from heat and whisk in powdered sugar. Continue whisking until all lumps are gone. Drizzle frosting over cooled cookies (or frost completely). Immediately add sprinkles if desired. Allow frosting to set before placing in resealable storage container.Chocolate Banana Cookies with Sprinkles

Combination of tastes!
I always get very tempted by the sweet, but end up going with the savory. Never met an eggs benny I didn’t like. haha
I love brunch because it’s a nice break between early morning and noon. I tend to make more sweet dishes for lunch such as peach crepes. Thank you for the amazing giveaway and Happy Brunch Week!
i tend to favor savory- like eggs benedict with a creamy hollandaise sauce.. and a mimosa of course!
I love a savory brunch. Like eggs benedict. It’s so good!
I love that with brunch I don’t have to wake up very early to have a delicious breakfast.
