This is a very tasty cookie and one that Elvis loved as well. Filled with bananas, peanut butter and oatmeal, and nuts... Thank you to Alvena Roy, Elvis's cook and longtime friend, for sharing his favorite recipes. "Thanks to Elvis, for giving us over 30 years of magic, and to his many fans who continue to keep the magic alive." Quote from: "Fit for a King" Cookbook and friends.
