     You may have noticed on my past posts, I've been having tons of fun in my garden this year.  One of my best crops so far has been the beets!  They are so beautiful when they are harvested! I've pickled some and I have to say that my  Pickled Beets  recipe is delicious.

Yesterday's garden harvest! That was my first carrot. Look at those dark colored beets! Loads of peas!
    While delicious, you can only make so many pickled beets without wanting to branch out.  You may remember that I do not love the taste of beets all by themselves, but they are so healthy, I find ways to eat them. (read about it here)  So, today I'm sharing with you a great way to sneak these babies into your diet in a way that everyone will love!  That's right, in cookies! Chocolate Beet Cookies to be exact! 
     The beets in these cookies keep them moist and keep these cookies moist, the color is rich and dark and with a shmear of buttercream frosting they are the perfect snack and no one is the wiser that they contain the secret ingredient, beets!

     They are good without frosting as well, but I couldn't resist the frosting shmear and a few sprinkles.  I based this recipe on our family favorite Fudge Mound Recipe.  The batter comes out a bit thinner with the addition of the beets.  I increased the flour by a bit, as well as the butter.

Enjoy!

You are kidding me!! Oh my word, I absolutely need this in my life. Now...how does it taste? If this is good, I might be able to get the kiddos to eat beets :-)

I couldn't even tell there were beets in them, except that the beets made them super moist!
