I have to admit, this I was skeptical of this recipe when I saw that the main ingredient was BEANS!
Mashed up beans turned into a yummy and healthy chocolate chip cookie dough dip?
Can it really be true?
It totally is.
A few ingredients, whipped up in the food processor, and voila! A healthy snack!
I put this out as an afternoon snack with graham crackers. I chuckled at my little secret ingredient as both my kids and a few neighborhood kids came and gobbled it all up. They loved it!
I did make the mistake of telling my girls there were beans in it after they were done snacking. They like beans, but one of my girls just couldn’t get over the idea of eating chocolate and beans together, and didn’t touch it again after that.
I have to admit, it is a bit off- putting to think about, but honestly, if someone else would have made this, I never would have known the base was beans. Now, I say that knowing my palate has changed quite a bit and may not be the average Joes palate after eating fairly clean, so I loved how Chocolate Covered Katie did an experiment with a recipe very much like this one and took it to a potluck without telling anyone what was in it. People ate it up and asked for the recipe!
I especially liked it after it had set up in the refrigerator. The consistency became less creamy and more like real chocolate chip cookie dough–so much so that my youngest asked if we could bake it into cookies.

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Whitney Farms for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
It’s the season of gardening and my square foot garden is well on its way! I had my very first harvest of the season yesterday, some amazing radishes, and I was pretty much giddy about it!
Just weeks ago I planted radish, spinach, kale, swiss chard & lettuce seeds. It is awesome to watch those little seeds turn into baby leaves in just a matter of days.
I did not do much soil preparation, I just added 1 bag of compost to each bed as I do every spring.
Something extra I did do this year that I’m super excited about was add some of Whitney Farms® Organic & Natural Plant Food. After a few seasons of using my beds, I wanted to add just a little extra something to make sure my plants have all the nutrients they need to grow strong. Whitney Farms® has little to no dust, has benefitial microbes, and is easy to apply. It a protein based blend that proides plants with both macro and micronutrients to grow and thrive!
Having organic soil is a must for me, I refuse to add anything that is not organic to my beds, so this product was perfect for me. I got both their all purpose plant food & their tomato & vegetable food. I love that they come in nice, reclosable bags.
I think my plants are looking strong and healthy, and seem to be growing at super speed this year. We have had some great rain storms lately, so I am sure that has helped, plus of course, the organic plant food.
If you would like to try out this product, visit the Whitney Farms® website for a $3.00 off coupon! I highly recommend it!
