oregenos restaurants in the phoenix area call the pazookie too. they are to die for! they have chocolate chip and white chocolate macadamia nut. for the longest time i wouldnt try them because it just seemed “too much”, but i finally let my friends talk me into it and there has been no going back…DELICIOUS. some women in my ward just use refrigerated pillsbury dough and say they get awesome results with that.

Kristine,

You can try using a little more butter. That is the only thing I can think of. You can also just try using your favorite cookie recipe.

I am allergic to nuts and peanut butter—what substitutions do you think I would need to make for the peanut butter? I’m thinking if I leave it out it will be too dry but peanut butter and me are not allowed anywhere near each other sadly. Used to love to eat it and now it no longer loves me. So, any ideas?

We made them last night and my 13 yo asked for seconds! I was on a major sugar high after one, but they were definitely yummy!

Thanks for the yummy idea for our new conference tradition. Our skookie’s were great! We did our is individual ramekin’s, and just loved them. The dough is great!

Amen SpidyBrain!

Personally, I call them Pazookie…my husband makes sure of that since we LOVED eating at BJ’s in Orange County. I’ve found in Utah most people know them as a Skookie because that is what the pan is called to make them at home…either way it’s a great recipe!

K-
The best way to know if your beans are ready to be cooked is to compare how your soaked beans look to a bean that hasn’t been soaked. It should be 1.5 to 2 times larger than a non soaked bean.

BJ’s Pizzeria and Brewery in California, and a bunch of other states is famous for this dessert. It’s called a Pazookie (pizza cookie) A huge cookie with ice cream melting over it… been around for a while. Shookie sounds like a cookie shake.

I’m glad you posted that recipe. I’ve been wanting to try it and keep forgetting.

Question about beans: How do you know if they have been soaked enough. Should the beans be soft, or should they been a bit crunchy? I’m having a hard time knowing if my beans are ready to be cooked?

Love your blog!! I am a friend of Faith’s and have enjoyed all your fun recipes and tips.

My husband is the cookie maker in our house and he makes a gigantic batch to freeze. He recently started making a recipe similar to this and will put small portions in the ramekins to have a (smallish) treat whenever he’d like. He does it in the toaster oven which is great because you don’t need to heat up the whole oven just for a single serving.
