Beany Weany PB Chocolate Chip Cookies

May 17, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 10 Comments

Guess what?  I’m at it again with my weird baking!!  Yes, I am still out for a guilt-free cookie, and I am loving all my experiments I have have been creating, trying to make it.  Well today I created a cookie, that is healthy, full of fiber and tastes like cookie dough.  It’s crazy, off the wall, but it had to be done!!

 

Beany Weeny PB Chocolate Cookies

These are my Beany Weany Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies.  I guess from the name, you kind of figure I made cookies using beans.  I got the idea from my Peanut Butter Cookie Hummus.  I took the hummus recipe and decided to bake it to see how it would go.

Peanut-Butter-Cookie-Hummus


The cookie tastes just like a peanut butter cookie!  Be warned though, this cookie is soft, tastes like raw cookie dough.  What I like about this cookie besides the taste is that it is healthy, can be vegan if you use Sunspire Chips, and so guilt-free that you can eat a few and not feel bad.  This is a great way to get your husband or kids to eat their beans!

For the chocolate I decided to use 1/2 a Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate Bar, and chop it up.  It gave it just enough sweetness.  Plus dark chocolate is good for you.  I originally planned on using chocolate chips, but went for the chopped bar instead.  I’m really pleased with these cookies, and it certainly helps with the cookie kick, that I occasionally get on.  Ok,that’s a lie, I’m always on a cookie kick!

Beany Weeny PB Chocolate Cookies

I took my batch of cookies and popped them in the freezer for easy storage and easy grabbing  I recommend freezing or refrigerating the cookies, since they are soft.  I have to tell you I love experimenting with different ingredients, and some things really shock me on how good they taste with random off the wall ingredients.  My Husband still doesn’t know that my Chocolate Chip Blondies are made with beans.  lol Do you ever experiment like that?

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    How awesome! I eat a bunch of the nut-based cookie dough balls to help resist cookie urges sometimes. I’ll have to try these too

    Oh wow. I’ve made a recipe that’s almost exactly the same but this has double the chickpeas. And the vanilla and salt is slightly different. It’s been a big hit so I imagine that these must be good as well!

Happy Thursday! Don’t you just love spring and E Happy Thursday! Don’t you just love spring and Easter? I’m sure going to miss styling with bunnies, eggs and carrots. It seems Easter is early this year. I have no clue how I will decorate after Easter? I may just keep my decor up past the holiday?
🐇
I’m sharing with you my new centerpiece on my dining room table. It has a peach theme to match with my carrot cart. The beautiful white trays are from my friends at @feltcreativehome. I staggered the smaller tray onto the big tray by putting some candles under it. I think it looks pretty cool this way. You will be seeing these trays again as they are the perfect size for styling my decor. The trays come in a set of two. You can find them on Amazon under Felt Creative Home.
🐇
The tea towel is from my friend Alicia @theblessedpeach. The beautiful wooden bunny is from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage. The ceramic bunnies, candy and glass jars are from Target.
🐇
Do you have any plans for Easter?

Happy Wednesday! Boy oh boy! It’s still raining Happy Wednesday! Boy oh boy! It’s still raining here. Plus it’s been cold. It makes it so hard to photograph. Plus to mention without sun, I have no motivation.
🐰
I am sharing with you how I styled my little table. I received the cutest wooden eggs from @sugarnmilkco. I love the pastel colors. They are just so cute and go with my Easter decor beautifully.
🐰
Sugar n Milk Co is having a Spring sale. Be sure you check them out. They ship fast too. The link is in my bio.
🐰
Hope the sun is shining where you live!

I want to give my apologies to the folks in the Philadelphia area. I seemed to have brought the California rain with me when I was there Thursday-Saturday. 😂 Hopefully you got some sun after I left.

This is a view if my livingroom. I really like how I styled my console table. The bunny sign and egg tree are from my friends @12timbers. I’ll be sad when Easter is over.

Have a wonderful day!

Happy Tuesday!! Another dreary day at the Bay! I k Happy Tuesday!! Another dreary day at the Bay! I know I complain about the weather a lot, but this seriously blows my mind in how crappy it is here. I need to get into the garden. It’s my happy place.
🐰
Today I am sharing with you a spring vignette that I created. I just love tulips this time of year. Though, they seem to be out all year at Trader Joe’s, which is kind of strange. I can’t wait until they get peonies and lilacs. My two favorites.
🐰
The candles are from my friends @goldhillcandleco. They are hand poured, 100% soy and have a wooden wick. They smell so fresh and clean. These two candles are from the March subscription box. I highly recommend.
🐰
Have the best day and I hope the sun is shining where you live!!

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleanin Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleaning this weekend. I wanted to give my kitchen counters the less is more look.
🫧
I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!
