Lately I've become obsessed with adding beans to desserts. This is my latest creation, and the best yet. This rich chocolate mint pie requires either a glass of wine or milk. You'd never guess this pie contains an entire can of black beans, it tastes exactly like a thin mint girl scout cookie.

Ingredients
2 mint chocolate bars
1 can unsalted black beans
2 eggs
1/2 cup butter
1 graham cracker pie crust
3/4 cup brown sugar

  • Add melted chocolate to the food processor. Mix.
  • Beat the eggs until they begin to hold shape.
  • Fold the bean/chocolate mixture into the eggs.

It sounds really good. I have to say, the black and white pictures are a little off-putting for this recipe. But I bet it tastes delicious!
