Going, going…BLONDIE…and I’m not talking mid-late 70’s disco punk either. Dessert, folks, (yes, again) DESSERT! (An idiom of Luke, my firstborn), the adage goes, “boredom = laziness”. Meaning, you’re bored? Well, then, get off your duff and go find something useful and/or creative to do. Yet, this evening, here I am, in a state of ennui (laziness). Aye, folks, yes I’m aware, no one is responsible for the juncture of my entertainment and amusement. That being said, I grasp ahold of Luke’s motto, and suddenly I can hear the laundry hamper calling me. So, off to the kitchen I go. Let’s bake…
Ingredients :
1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup all natural peanut butter (or almond butter)
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
2 teaspoons (mexican)
vanilla
1/2 tsp pink salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup dark choclate plus 2 tablespoons
Throw all ingredients in food processor (except, chocolate chip. I had to dig em’ out. Ugh).
Blend all ingredients until a nice stick incorporated mess. Now, add in dark chocolate chips.
Plop into 8×8 baking pan. Bake @ 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile, listen to this album.
And…
…do something productive. Like (roll my eyes), umm, the never-ending cycle of laundry.
Let cool on cooling rack for 20 minutes before cutting. (I like to refrigerator overnight.)
Be happy and enjoy.
