Here are the two recipes you asked for. I had them in my database of recipes:
Pinto Bean Fudge
From Leigh’s Place 18,000+ Shared Internet Recipes

1 1/2 cups Mini marshmallows
1 1/2 cups Strained pinto beans

1 2/3 cups Sugar
1/2 cup Nuts

Combine sugar and milk in kettle. Boil 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add remaining ingredients and stir until marshmallows melt. Pour into buttered pan; (I would line with waxed paper for easier clean-up) cool and cut into squares.

thoroughly drained beans, vanilla and powdered sugar.
2. Place in a large buttered, shallow baking pan with

I would love to know how these tasted
Pinto Bean Fudge
1 cup warm cooked pinto beans pureed with very little water, or it will be runny
3/4 cup melted butter
1 cup cocoa
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 pounds powdered sugar (8 cups)
1 cup chopped pecans
Puree beans by any method, but try not to add any more moisture. Add melted butter, cocoa and vanilla. Mix in powdered sugar gradually. Add nuts if desired. Press into a 9 x 13 inch oiled or non-stick pan. Store in the refrigerator.
A whopping 690 calories per serving (one ninth). If you substitute Splenda for the sugar, the calories go to 280. Lots of protein and fiber. You could reduce the overall fat by using margarine, but I don’t know how it would turn out… The calories are reduced to 210 per piece by leaving out the pecans.
