Toddler Truffles

I saw a similar recipe to these in The Toddler Cookbook, by Jennifer Garden. Since I had the main ingredients on hand, I thought I would go ahead and give it a try. Turns out my son really enjoyed
these!

Ingredients:

1/2 Can of Black Beans, drained (15oz Cans, used 1/2)
1/4 Cup of Sugar
1/4 Cup of Brown Sugar
2 Tbsp of Butter
1/4 Tsp of Baking Powder
1 Egg
1 Tsp of Vanilla
Crushed Graham Crackers or Powdered Sugar to dust on the truffles

Preheat the oven to 375*.

Mix together the beans, sugar, brown sugar, butter, baking powder, and vanilla. Use a mixer or food processor to mix these ingredients, then mix in the egg. Pour each one into a greased pan, the book calls for an 8x8 pan. I actually used a cupcake pan.

Bake it in the oven for 30 minutes. Let it cool for about 15 minutes. Then, I sprinkled crushed graham cracker on the top. You can cut the truffles out almost like brownies, or you can use a spoon or ice cream scooper to make balls out of them.

I did not have powdered sugar on hand; however, that's a good item to sprinkle on them.

I was really skeptical of these; however, my son was not. He was ready for more!
