Delicious Banana Walnut Passover Cookies (Lower Fat)

Submitted by stella artois

"I made these for passover this year, and they were a hit! They have a slight chocolate flavor, but the banana and walnut stand out more. They taste a little like oatmeal cookies with the flavor of banana walnut muffins. I would make them all year around! ( note, the sweeter the chocolate you use, the less sugar needed)"
