Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
- Cream shortening; add brown sugar, beating well. Add eggs and banana; beat well.
- Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices. Add to creamed mixture; mix well. Stir in pecans.
- Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls, 2 inches apart onto greased cookies sheets. Bake for 12 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool. Dip half of cooled cookies into Powdered Sugar Icing.
