Sunbutter Kiss Cookies

These, my friends, are as yummy as they look. The best part? They are egg and nut free! Nothing against eggs or nuts, unless one is allergic, of course. The sunbutter (sunflower-based alternative to peanut butter) is delicious and creamy. Plus, the banana substitution for the eggs in this recipe not only adds some beneficial potassium, but it also reduces the overall cholesterol.

1/2 C Sunbutter (sunflower seed butter)
1/4 C unsalted butter
1/2 C sugar, plus extra for coating
1/2 C brown sugar
1 ripe banana
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp lemon juice
1 1/2 C flour
1/2 baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 C dark chocolate chips, plus a few extra for toppings, Ghiradelli chips work well as they are a bit larger.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Cream first four ingredients - Sunbutter, butter, sugar, and brown sugar - until smooth. Add mashed banana, vanilla, and lemon juice...
