Frosted Banana Cookies

So....I found this recipe from my Kitchen Klatter cookbook that my mom found me. They are so to YUMMY!!! I can't say enough about them....makes me drool! ha!

3/4 c. shortening
3/4 c. brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla flavoring
1/2 tsp. banana flavoring
2 mashed ripe bananas
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. soda
2 c. flour

Cream shortening and sugar. Add egg, flavorings and banana and beat well. Sift and add dry ingredients. Drop by teaspoon onto a greased cooky sheet and bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. This makes about 40 nice, soft cookies.

Icing (which I didn't make)

6 tbsp. brown sugar
4 tbsp. cream
4 tbps. butter or margarine
powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla flavoring

Combine brown sugar, cream and butter or margarine. Bring to a boil, remove from heat and add enough powdered sugar to make frosting a nice consistency to spread on cookies. Lastly, stir in vanilla flavoring.
