Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mash the 2 ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
Mix in the egg until fully incorporated, then add the mashed bananas and stir until combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture while mixing on low speed until just combined.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Chill the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes, if desired, for thicker cookies.
Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Remember, cookies continue to bake slightly after being removed from the oven. Aim for a slightly underbaked appearance for the best texture.
