Soft & Chewy Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies #BakingWithBecel

June 1, 2015 / 28 Comments

Baking and I have a love/hate relationship; when the recipe I’m working on turns out great I love it and when it doesn’t I hate it, I love coming up with my own tasty creation but it can be stressful when it doesn’t work out as I planned.

Cookies tend to be my biggest downfall, not because they don’t taste great because they always do but more because I always feel like I’m going to break a tooth on the ones I bake. Becel has created the perfect solution to my cookie baking woes with the Anything Goes Cookie Dough. Who knew Becel Buttery Taste margarine was the secret to making my cookies soft and chewy!?
