Hi Pies!
Chocolate-Chip Cookie Pies, of course.
You probably got more than enough chocolatey photos in yesterday’s post to satisfy even the most enormous cookie-dough craving. But I found one more that I forgot to post:
Gooey, melty, chocolatey Deep-Dish Cookie Pie.
Is there another word for gooey? I keep using it over and over to describe this pie! Maybe fudgey? That word definitely applies to the pie as well.
I am Katie, queen of… beans? 😕
This beans-in-dessert thing is getting out of hand! And I still have recipe ideas for bean-y muffins, cake, and brownie batter! I’ll hold off on those recipes for at least a few weeks, to give those of you who are not-so-enamored of beans a break. Tomorrow’s recipe post has nothing to do with beans. For today, though, here’s a look back at all my garbanzo-filled desserts:
And finally, yesterday’s gooey-licious pie:
Question of the Day:
Do you ever hide “strange” ingredients in your foods?
Spinach in smoothies, pumpkin in brownies, avocado pudding…
I love surprise desserts. Remember my Spinach Ice Cream?
I hide spinach in everything!!! Smoothies, pancakes, ice cream, muffins….I also like adding sweet potatoes to a bunch of stuff-load up on vit A!!!
The things I “hide” in desserts would be avocados. Either in the avo banana ice cream I just made but there’s no hiding it since it’s lime green! However, in my raw vegan “chocolate mousse”, there are avos. And enough cocoa powder and agave to go into a sugar coma with 🙂
That’s the only dessert in my arsenal that I truly take pleasure in NOT telling people what’s in it, waiting for them to ooh and ahh, and THEN breaking out the news. I am twisted like that…lol
Just b/c no one EVER suspects and it’s just fun to see their reaction.
You know I have the UTMOST respect for your bean-ey creations and you HAVE tempted me enough that when I am back home in my own kitchen, I WILL be making something. Now…I just have to choose. That’s the hard part!
🙂

I vote that you do a deep-dish cookie pie giveaway. Just sayin.
Yep I do all that! Spinach in smoothies, pumpkin in brownies, avocado pudding, beans in blondies and brownies, I’ve had it all! Haha but if someone had told me that I would this time last year I would’ve thought they were insane! 😛
And I am SO making that pie either tomorrow or Friday!! Can’t WAIT!!
P.S. I actually don’t know how you are LIVING without nut butter!! Get on that ASAP Katie!! 😀
I do all that too! I love spinach is smoothies and applesauce, pumpkin, or banana in cookies, muffins, or brownies 🙂
The cookie pie looks so, so good! What about “squidgy” for a word? ::-)
I’ve made vegancupcakes with avocado and didn’t tell anyone till after they’d eaten them – they couldn’t believe it 🙂
I love putting an unexpected healthy ingredient in desserts! I can’t wait for these cinnamon rolls!! I need a CCK cookbook 😉
Of course I hide “strange” ingredients in my food. What is to expect from a healthy living blogger turned foodie? 😉
Some of my favorites are spinach in smoothies, tofu mousse, tofu in frosting, and dessert hummus! 😀
I cannot wait to make that cookie pie. Looks amazing.
I have a question! I’ve tried to make your cookie dough dip twice now, first with chickpeas and peanut butter, this time with white beans and cashew butter and no milk, but both times it has turned out runny – not firm like yours! Where did I go wrong?
Hmmm… I don’t know! Are you draining your beans? 😕
I think all true health-foodies hide strange ingredients in their foods. There’s something so fun about eating a food that looks like it has no vegetables in it, but actually has a full serving, or something that tastes like dessert, but is actually made out of beans! I’m all for the hidden (and healthful) ingredients! However, I think YOU definitely wear the crown for that talent.
