I was looking for something different and it fit the bill! I can't do chick peas, so I substituted with Northern Beans and it was great. Thanks for sharing the receipt!

i make this often to bring to parties. i prefer to use cooked bacon (a whole pound crumbled), more onion and molasses instead of the brown sugar (although i have used either). i also like the sweet crust so i bake it in the oven after combining on the stovetop.
