Maple Banana Oatmeal Cookies

I may have packed most of my baking pans, but I kept my cookie sheets on the side.  I am currently trying to empty out my pantry before we move because our belongings are going into storage for a few weeks and we will be living out of a hotel for a week or so until our new house is completed.  So I am going to continue baking cookies and other goodies with the supplies I have left on hand and freeze them to take with us.  For these cookies, I used up my maple butter, raisins, dark chocolate chips, rolled oats and a ripe banana.  So much goodness packed into one cookie.

Spiced Dark Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies

My house is a real disaster zone right now.  I am up to my eyeballs in boxes, packing tape, and bubble wrap.  I have about three quarters of the house packed so far, and can't wait to be done.  In an effort to keep sane, I thought I would take a short break and make some cookies.  I was in the mood for something dark and chocolatey.  When Oh! Nuts sent me those dried pineapple bits and sliced guava I used for my last recipe, they had also sent a huge bag of hazelnuts.  Dark chocolate and hazelnuts sounded like a great match!
