Pinto Bean Fudge
Ingredients
•1 (15 ounce) can unseasoned pinto beans, rinsed and drained
•1 cup baking cocoa
•3/4 cup butter or stick margarine, melted
•1 tablespoon vanilla extract
•7 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
•1 cup chopped walnuts or any other nut you like (Nuts also optional)
Directions
In a microwave-safe dish, mash beans with a fork until smooth(I like to use my trusty potato masher); 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 nonstick cooking spray.
Cover and refrigerate until firm. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
If you use less powdered sugar, I think you could totally use this for frosting!
*TIP* I store this in the fridge or the freezer due to the beans. Enjoy!
