Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Blend in eggs and vanilla extract, then add mashed ripe bananas and ensure everything is well-combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually add to wet mixture and stir gently.

Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10-14 minutes.

Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

In a medium bowl, whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and banana pudding mix until soft peaks form.

Once cookies are cool, top each with banana-infused whipped cream and garnish with fresh banana slices if desired.
