Fudgy (Black Bean) Brownie Cookies
Shhhh....just don't mention the beans.
Servings 20 small cookies
Ingredients
- 1 14-oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3 TBSP cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup peanut butter (or any nut/seed butter of choice)
- 1/2 cup honey, maple syrup, sugar, or other sweetener
- 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Process all ingredients in a food processor or high-speed blender. Add chocolate chips last and gently process or stir in.
- Use a cookie scoop or two spoons to create tablespoon-sized cookies. Batter will be runnier than traditional cookie dough. Press a few more chocolate chips into the top. Enjoy the batter! Can even use it as chocolate hummus on fruit, etc. or eat with a spoon.
- Bake for 20-23 miutes. They won't look done yet. Let cool completely before eating, at least 1 hour. They need to cool to finish setting up.
