Take your snacking to a new level with Chocolate Hummus, a deliciously sweet and surprisingly creamy twist on the traditional savory dip. This dessert hummus combines the smoothness of blended chickpeas with cocoa and a hint of sweetness, resulting in a treat that’s both rich and satisfying. Perfect for pairing with fruit, pretzels, or even spreading on toast, chocolate hummus offers a healthier way to indulge your sweet tooth without sacrificing flavor.

The secret to this indulgent dip is balancing the natural earthiness of chickpeas with cocoa powder, vanilla, and just enough sweetener to enhance the chocolatey goodness. This guilt-free snack is packed with fiber and protein, making it as nutritious as it is delicious.


Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons almond butter or tahini
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup water (add more as needed for consistency)
  • Pinch of salt

Directions

Blend the Ingredients

  • In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Begin blending, adding water gradually until the hummus reaches a smooth, creamy consistency.

Adjust to Taste

  • Taste the hummus and adjust the sweetness or cocoa powder if desired. Blend again until everything is well incorporated and silky smooth.

Serve and Enjoy

  • Transfer the chocolate hummus to a bowl and serve with sliced fruit, pretzels, or graham crackers. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to a week.
