Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Beat in the egg, mashed bananas, and vanilla extract.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until smooth.
-
Once the cookies have cooled, spread a spoonful of the vanilla pudding mixture onto the flat side of one cookie, then sandwich it with another cookie. Repeat with the remaining cookies.

Optional: Roll the edges of the cookies in powdered sugar or sprinkles for added decoration.
-
Allow the cookies to rest for 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
