LEXINGTON SC (WOLO) – With the Holidays right around the corner, fond memories of catching a whiff of Grandma’s cookies surly come to mind to many people…with that on our minds, on this Tasty Tuesday, we decided to try out some of my Great Grandmother’s favorite cookies, Chocolate Chip Banana Cookies, and her Aunt Ada’s 150 year old Ginger Cookie recipe.
I remember going to Nan Nan’s house, and she would keep two large tins, full of cookies beside the refrigerator. Over the years, I became a master of getting the top of the tins without making a sound…or so I thought, and snagging cookies all day long…as evidenced by this gem of a picture:
Ok, quickly moving on…..
Chocolate Chip Banana Cookies:
Here is what you need:
2 1/2 cup sifted flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup (about 3) mashed bananas
2/3 Cup shortening (Crisco)
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 package of chocolate chips
1 tsp Vanilla
Here is what you do:
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees
Blend the shortening and sugar
Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition
Stir in package of chocolate chips and vanilla
Add sifted flour, along with mashed bananas
Use a teaspoon to drop cookies on ungreased cookie sheet
Place in oven for about 14 minutes, sit wait, and then pop them out
Allow to cool, and enjoy!
Aunt Ada’s Ginger Cookies
Here’s what you need:
1 cup sugar
1 cup molasses
1 cup lard
1 cup hot water
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ginger
1 tablespoon of cinnamon
6 cups sifted flour
Here’s what you do:
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
Melt lard on stove, then place in large mixing bowl
Add sugar, molasses, and hot water, soda, salt, spices, mixing all together
Sift in flour slowly, creating thick dough
Roll dough and cut cookies
place cut cookies on a cookie sheet with Pam or other non-stick spray
Place in oven for 15 minutes
Allow to cool and enjoy!
PRO TIP:
It’s helpful to clean the dishes as you go…but not as fun to have someone else do them…
