Ingredients

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees; lightly coat cookie sheets with vegetable cooking spray.

In a large bowl, cream 3/4 cup margarine and sugar; add the egg whites, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and mashed bananas.

In a small bowl, combine the flour and baking soda; add the the banana mixture, 1/2-cup at a time, mixing well.

Drop by teaspoonfuls onto the cookie sheets.

Bake for 8 minutes, or until just browned around the edges; remove to wire racks to cool.

For the frosting, in a small saucepan, combine 1 tablespoon margarine, milk and brown sugar.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and continue to boil for 2 minutes.

Remove from the heat; add the powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, beating until smooth.

It may be necessary to adjust the milk or sugar to get the desired spreading consistency.

Spread a thin layer of frosting on each cookie.

Let the icing harden before storing the cookies.
