Can you think of a better way to eat your beans then as dessert? Another plus is not having to turn on that oven in the summer! When I had tried a tea cake with beans and loved it, I went looking for more things with beans that are desserts. Found this on the internet. This is not a diet dessert...so eat sparingly.
