Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
1 can chickpeas, rinsed and skins removed
½ cup chunky peanut butter, or nut butter of choice
⅓ cup granulated sugar
2 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon cream cheese
1 tablespoon McCormick® vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon McCormick® Ground Cinnamon
¼ teaspoon McCormick® ground allspice
½ cup chocolate chips, or chopped chocolate - a mix of milk and dark
½ cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
¼ cup golden raisin

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease an 8-inch square glass baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, peanut butter, sugar, egg yolks, cream cheese, vanilla, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and allspice. Purée until smooth and well-combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl at least once, 1-2 minutes.
  • Use a rubber spatula to scrape the mixture into a medium bowl. Add the chocolate, walnuts, and raisins and stir to combine.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and spread as evenly as possible, all the way to the corners of the dish.
  • Bake the blondies for 22-24 minutes, until lightly browned around the edges and a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 30-45 minutes before slicing, to allow the blondies to set.
  • Slice into 9 or 12 pieces, then serve.
  • Enjoy!
