FUDGY 3-INGREDIENT COOKIES

FUDGY 3-INGREDIENT COOKIES
The last ingredient is peanut butter, and don’t even try to tell me you don’t have peanut butter! It’s best if it’s the unsweetened, natural, creamy kind, but use what you have.
And finally, there’s the sea salt which, I suppose, is technically the 4th ingredient. Wait, don’t go! You can skip the salt if you want, but the cookies won’t taste the same.
The salt is what pulls the whole cookie together, making the cocoa taste more robust and bringing out the sweetness of the bananas. The salt is actually pretty important, even though it doesn’t technically go in the cookie.

Troubleshooting tips:
If your cookies are too lumpy, try running the dough in the food processor for 30-60 seconds.
The moisture content of the dough may vary (for example if your large banana is bigger than they ones I used). If the batter is too thin and watery, you can try two things: add more cocoa to absorb the moisture, and/or bake for longer.
Make sure you thoroughly stir your peanut butter. If it is too oily (such as from the top of a new jar), that might be another reason why your batter could be too runny.
On the other hand, if your PB is the right consistency, it can be tough to stir into the batter. Try microwaving it for 15-20 seconds until it's smooth and easier to work with.
Depending on the moisture content of your bananas, your baking time could vary from 8 minutes to 15 minutes.
If your dough is more like a thick batter, just plop the portions of dough on the cookie sheet and they will spread out by themselves. No need to flatten with a fork.
If you don't want to garnish your cookies with salt, add a pinch to the batter.
