Banana split cookies are a fun and unique cookie recipe. We love to bake different cookie recipes. Everyone loves a good classic chocolate chip cookie, but sometimes you just want something different. Banana split cookies offer a blend of flavors, sure to wake up your taste buds.
Since this cookie recipe uses a cake mix, it’s quite simple to make. All you need are a bunch of add-ins, which you could have fun with and switch up to your liking. These cookies are like a mini-party. Perfect for birthdays or any celebration. If you use vanilla pudding mix instead of banana, you could even call them Birthday Cake Cookies. Experiment and have fun!
