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!

Beany Weeny PB Chocolate Cookies

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!

Hello Tuesday! We’ve had some nice weather this Hello Tuesday!  We’ve had some nice weather this week. It must have hit 70 yesterday. I’ll enjoy it while I can. Next week it’s supposed to back in the 50’s with chance of rain. Well at least I won’t have to worry about watering my garden.
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my Easter tablescapes. I wanted to go simple. I feel when there’s too much on the table, you have a hard time seeing the people across from you. Plus my table is only 5’ long, so I don’t have a lot of space.
🐰
I’m loving the blues and greens. It’s such a pretty color for Spring. I had a whole blue tablescape idea in my mind, but I’m having problems finding pieces that I like. I sure miss Pier1. That was my go to place for table setting decor.
🐰
What are your favorite colors for Spring?

Happy March 1st! Can you believe 19 more days till Happy March 1st! Can you believe 19 more days till Spring and 14 more days until daylight savings. Oh the pure signs of warm weather and sunshine are coming.
🌸
I sure had a busy weekend. We had 5 yards of top soil delivered and my husband wheel barreled it all to the backyard. My new garden bed is just about ready for planting. I’m so excited!
🌸
Yesterday I worked on a bunch of photos to share this week. I must have formatted over a 100 pictures. No, I won’t be sharing that many. It’s just hard to find the right one. I’m sure you know what I mean.
🌸
I’m sharing with you my top 4 photos for the month of February.  I can’t wait to see what is in store for March, because I have no idea. Lol
🌸
What are you looking most forward to this month?

Happy Thursday! I’m still dabbling in different Happy Thursday! I’m still dabbling in different parts of my home. I haven’t finished one spot. I’m hoping to share my bathroom reveal next week. I just need a couple of little things, like a rug and some towels. Thank you so much for your suggestions. You put bad ideas in my head, but in a good way. Lol
🌸
I’m sharing with you my floral arrangement that I shared in a reel Monday. I just love it so much. It’s going to be the centerpiece to my Spring dining table. So it’ll make an another appearance soon. If I ever finish my table.
🌸
I also have to share with you the cute bunnies that I bought from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage. I love them so much. The whitewash and flowers stole my heart. I just love bunnies. I may have gone bunny crazy this season.

Do you like to decorate with animals?

Hi Everyone! The weather is starting to warm up h Hi Everyone!  The weather is starting to warm up here and I have Spring fever!  #sponsored I’ve been working in the garden beds, planting annuals and enjoying some fresh air and sunshine.
🌸
I freshened up my gorgeous patio set that I got from @rstbrands. I dressed up my table by adding some Ranunculus and a cute little bunny to a tray. Doesn’t scream Spring?
🌸
I also added some throw pillows and a cute blanket to keep you warm on a chilly evening. The Yuri 4 piece patio set is made out of certified eucalyptus wood has held up so beautifully with the heavy rains and winds.
🌸
I love the shade of blue of the cushions, it reminds me of the sunny blue skies. The cushions are also so comfortable to sit on. The best part is that the covers have zippers on them so you can take the covers off and wash them.
🌸
Spring fever is hitting me hard this year and I can’t wait to enjoy the great outdoors.
🌸
Do you get Spring fever?

I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

I decorated it with items that I use on a regular basis in my kitchen, plus pretty little items. Oh and that cute cement pear also came in the March decor box.

🐰
Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?

Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bi Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bit of rough day in my house. Woke up to see my sweet Sampson wasn’t feeling well.  He was just laying around, didn’t get up to greet me, and the biggest sign was he didn’t ask for a bone. You know how he’s obsessed with bones.
🐶
Around 9am he perked up and asked for a bone and wanted to go outside to snoop around. He seems to be better, but is still kind of laying around. I just hope he will be okay. He’s 11, and I get so worried. He’s my child.
🐶
I’m sharing with you my pretty tulips from Trader Joe’s. They have such a great selection of tulips in array of colors. Though I didn’t see any roses, which is strange. We do not have any plans for the weekend, that I know of, but we have the tendency to wing it.  I’ll keep you posted. Hope you have a wonderful Valentines weekend!

Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most likely be heading to Trader Joe’s and I have to get my husband a Valentines gift. I would get him his favorite, chocolate, but he bought himself a ton of chocolate last weekend, so I’ll have to think of something else. Maybe he’ll like flowers from Trader Joe’s? Lol
🌸
Speaking of flowers, check out my new, gorgeous marble and wood cutting board that I got from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love the engraved flowers in it. It is so pretty.
🌸
The cutting board is her newest item at her Etsy shop. She engraves different items, like your name, but for me it is flowers. I’ll always keep the cutting board displayed. I think it is far to pretty to use. I’m afraid someone would scratch it.
🌸
Do you use cutting boards or just use them as display?
