1 cup peanut butter  
1/2 cup butter  
1/2 cup baked beans, rinsed and drained  
2 eggs  
1 Tbsp. vanilla  
2 tsp. butterscotch extract or extract of choice (almond, banana, etc.)

1/2 cup of oat bran  
1/4 tsp. salt

Cream together peanut butter and butter.  Place beans in food processor with eggs and process until smooth.  Add to peanut butter mixture.  Add the rest of the ingredients in the order given.  Mix well.  Form into balls with a small size trigger style scoop.  Place 2 in. apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet.  With a fork dipped into garbanzo flour, make a crisscross indent on each cookie, while flattening them. Bake at 375 degrees for about 10 minutes.  Remove to a cooling rack until cooled.
