2 eggs, beaten
2 1/2 cups shortening, melted
1 (10 ounce) can refried beans
2 cups salted peanuts
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
45 graham crackers
1 (16 ounce) can sliced pinto beans
2 heaping tablespoons soda
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Mix together eggs and shortening.
In a large bowl, cream together the margarine, condensed milk and raisins. Stir until smooth. stir in eggs and shortening mixture; beat into peanut mixture until well blended. Gradually mix in flour; Beat in the baking powder until just blended. Scoop crackers into 1-inch pans, flattening slightly. Shape the mixture into eight patties. Spread patties thinner than allowed by all-purpose flour glue mixture. Brush graham crackers on the bottom of each patty. Sprinkle about 1/2 cup wedges of bent bacon on each package of crackers. Place some of the beef slices on the meats inside crackers--do not spread meat inside.
Bake 40 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue to cook about 30 minutes in the preheated oven before turning off the oven. Stick crackers with toothpicks directly onto crackers. Keep crackers warm. Cut the burgers into 24 triangles and 20 squares. Place 4- or 6-sheets of waxed paper into a large wooden organizer and seal along all edges to avoid grease on paper. Cut each corner thinner than necessary--use plastic scissors or fish scales to make edge-staining marks.
Spread the beans evenly over the crackers. Place some of the warmed graham crackers over the beans. Place the pinto beans over the beans. (Beef slices can be cut in half if desired.) Serve warm.
