Gluten Free Chocolate Chili Cherry Cookies
September 25, 2013
It's always heartbreaking to bid goodbye to summer, but you need not weep. You can always relive the warm-weather with some recipes that make you feel warm and cozy, even on the inside.
These cookies are moist, rich, fudgy and filling, with a hint of spice. All these qualities are guaranteed to give you an explosion in the mouth. The secret ingredient to this is actually the Black Beans.
Just so you know, black beans are packed with fiber and protein. It’s not a very usual combination, mind you. A one-cup serving of black beans contains 14 grams of protein – the same amount as a 2 oz. serving of chicken or salmon.
Black beans do magic to the digestive tract and the skin of these beans is packed with high levels of phytonutrients. All these nutrients can work in your dessert, how awesome is that?!
Mini Chocolate Chip Gluten Free Cheesecakes

I've said it so many times, I'm crazy about cheesecake. What's great about this recipe is the fact that it lets you alter the flavor of the cheesecake pretty easily. Love lime cheesecake? Substitute the chocolate chips for lime zest and lime juice.
If you're going for classic plain cheesecake, you can remove the chocolate chips and add 1 more tsp of vanilla to the batter. If you swear by blueberry cheesecake, substitute the chocolate chips for 1 cup of blueberries.
