I've got two cocoa beans and would love to plant them, but I can't seem to figure out how.

You cannot plant cocoa beans in Minecraft versions below 1.3.1. As the wiki says, they can only be used as dyes and to make cookies and they can only be found in chests in dungeons.

As of 1.3.1, you can plant cocoa beans on the side of jungle trees to grow cocoa plants, from which you can harvest more cocoa beans.
