I have not tried this recipe. I am adding it here for safe keeping. A friend gave this to me and it is her Grandma Hennig's family recipe. It sounded like a good way to use excess beets from the summer garden. If you make these, please review and let me know if you like them.
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup honey
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup margarine, melted
1/2 cup red beet, cooked, grated
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup butterscotch chips
1/4 cup semisweet chocolate piece
3/8 cup walnuts, chopped
Directions:
1. Mix together first 5 ingredients. Stir together next 5 ingredients in separate bowl. Then combine 2 mixtures alternately, mixing well after each addition. Fold in remaining ingredients.
2. Drop by level tablespoonful 1-1 1/2 apart on greased cookie sheet.
3. Bake in preheated oven at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
