I used the search feature and found nothing quite like this:
Since cocoa beans are also a seed and this seems to fit into the tongue-in-cheek theme of Minecraft, being able to feed cocoa beans to chickens and getting chocolate eggs from them would be an interesting idea.
As it is, cocoa beans are very plentiful and seem to simply pile up. I have stacks and stacks of cookies and cocoa beans alike from a single plantation of only 5 jungle trees.
This would be a good use for surplus cocoa beans without any real balance issues.
Update:
If this is to be an idea for an Easter update, how about making them chocolate cream-filled eggs, a la Cadbury cream eggs? Something along those lines.
How much hunger it should replenish: uncertain. We wouldn't want to make cookies redundant. Ideas?
If it's thought to be overpowered, perhaps you should have to breed two chickens using beans to produce a brown chick which then has to grow up. Once it grows up, it then lays a chocolate egg before turning white again and becoming a normal chicken.
Breeding one chicken fed with a normal seed with another chicken fed with a cocoa bean would have a chance of producing a brown chicken in the same way as breeding dyed sheep.
Chocolate eggs should be temporarily added in Easter.
I wouldn't personally like the idea of temporary. It just that feeling that you know that once you like that feature, it will be removed :(. I guess a recipe with an egg and 4 cocoa beans surrounding it wouldn't be to overpowered.

You've never eaten eggs?
I am ninja'd far too often.
Would also add some variation. I guess a Chocolate Chicken would very rarely spawn naturally.
Do I need to say "support" when I just give you this:
One question: How much hunger would it replenish?
Other that that it sounds tasty, you have my
(I should stop doing that, I might... BOOM)
We should try to keep this idea alive, though, to either perfect it or ensure it gets attention.

Curse PremiumYou could say the same about any holiday, even Halloween, which usually has updates dedicated to it.
Why only temporary, out of curiosity?
I only suggested it because cocoa beans need more uses... they simply pile up at an astonishing rate.
