Brownie Sandwich Cookies with black beans

Here's a delicious way to eat your beans! A black bean brownie cookie with a date-sweetened creamy filling.

INGREDIENTS  
Cookies
  • ½ cup dates, pitted
  • 1½ cup cooked black beans (or 1-15 oz BPA-free, salt-free can- drained & rinsed)
  • ½ cup oats
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup raw nut or seed butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Filling
  • 2 tablespoons date syrup
  • 2 tablespoons raw nut or seed butter
  • unsweetened soy milk or water, if needed
  • unsweetened cocoa powder, if needed

INSTRUCTIONS 
  • Preheat oven to 395F.
  • Fill a 1 cup measuring cup halfway with dates and add just enough boiling water to cover. Let dates soak for about 10 minutes, while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
  • Place black beans, oats, cocoa powder, peanut butter, and vanilla in a food processor. Add the dates along with the soaking water and process until smooth, and there aren't big chunks of dates.
  • Using a spoon, divide the batter into 12-24 cookies on a baking sheet lined with a silicon mat or baking paper.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and let them cool on a cooling rack.
  • For the filling, combine equal parts nut butter and date syrup - about 2 tablespoons of each. The consistency of nut butter can vary, so if the filling is too thick, add a tiny dash of soymilk and if it's too runny add a little bit of cocoa powder.
  • Sandwich the cookies together using the filling and enjoy!
