Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine cooled melted unsalted butter and brown sugar, stirring until well blended.
  2. Add the mashed ripe banana, egg yolk, and vanilla extract into the butter-sugar mixture. Mix thoroughly until creamy.
  3. Sprinkle in the salt, baking soda, and ground cinnamon, mixing until fully integrated.
  4. Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour, mixing until no dry streaks remain.
  5. Gently mix in the semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  6. Cover the cookie dough with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  7. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  8. Once chilled, scoop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  9. Press a few extra chocolate chips into the tops of the dough balls for a decorative touch, if desired.
  10. Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until slightly golden around the edges.
  11. After baking, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 2 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
