Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted unsalted butter and brown sugar. Mix until well blended and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Add mashed ripe banana, egg yolk, and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar blend. Stir until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle in salt, baking soda, and ground cinnamon. Gently fold these dry ingredients into the batter.
  4. Gradually fold in all-purpose flour using a spatula. Be cautious not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in chocolate chips and chopped walnuts. Distribute evenly in the dough.
  6. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  8. Using a cookie scoop, portion out the chilled dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  9. Optionally, press additional chocolate chips on top of each dough ball.
  10. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until edges are golden brown and centers are slightly soft.
  11. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheets for about 2 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
