Ingredients

• 1 cup canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons almond butter (or tahini)
• 3 tablespoons non-dairy milk (such as almond or oat milk)
• 1 pinch pinch of salt
• 2 tablespoons optional chocolate chips (for garnishing)

Directions

Step 1

Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas thoroughly under cold running water to remove excess sodium and the canning liquid.

Step 2

In a food processor, add the chickpeas, unsweetened cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond butter, non-dairy milk, and a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Process the mixture on high speed for 1-2 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula, until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.

Step 4

If the hummus is too thick, add additional tablespoons of non-dairy milk, one at a time, and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.

Step 5

Taste the chocolate hummus and adjust the sweetness by adding an extra tablespoon of maple syrup if preferred. Blend briefly to incorporate.

Step 6

Transfer the chocolate hummus into a serving bowl or airtight container. If desired, sprinkle with chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Serve immediately with fruits like strawberries, apple slices, or pretzels, or store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
