Beans + Blondies=delicious

Oh. Hello! I have all these things I've wanted to talk about here, but.. well.. I've been lazy. And forgotten. But! That's all changed. At least, for today. Because today (and yesterday, really) is different! I have had inspiration. There has been inspiration in the form of Navy Beans: 
See those pretty little beans? They're delicious in lots of things. (And by lots of things, I mean Isa & Terry's Leek & Bean Cassoulet from Veganomicon. *ahem*) And they're good for you. And shit. 

We all know (assumption! Maybe we don't?) that black beans go into brownies and make them healthy. So, what about white beans? Can they go in Blondies? A google search informed they could & did. I may or may not have spent some time at work investigating the various recipes posted. I ended up making my own version. Using bits and pieces of those recipes and some of my own ideas. 

I am so glad I did and could. Just look at them: 




They were delicious, although I need to work on the texture a bit. Maybe someday I will post the recipe.  In the meantime, I just want to make you jealous.
