This fun novelty recipe uses pinto beans to replace some of the butter typically found in fudge. Walnuts give the soft creamy squares a nice crunch. -Pattie Ann Forssberg of Logan, Kansas Ingredients:
1 can (15 ounces) pinto beans, rinsed and drained |
1 cup baking cocoa |
3/4 cup butter, melted |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
7-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. In a microwave-safe dish, mash beans with a fork until smooth; cover and microwave for 1-1/2 minutes or until heated through. Add cocoa, butter and vanilla. (Mixture will be thick.) Slowly stir in sugar; add nuts. Press mixture into a 9-in. square pan coated with cooking spray. Cover and refrigerate until firm. Cut into 1-in. pieces. Yield: about 3-1/2 pounds.
