Notes
Storage: For best results, store the cookies in the refrigerator. Because they contain banana, when left at room temperature, they will let out moisture and quickly become mushy and unappealing. When refrigerated, they will keep for up to 7 days.
Freezing: These cookies do well frozen. Store cookies in a Zip-lock freezer bag or freezer container. Kept frozen, cookies will keep for up to 3 months.
