Chocolate Hummus Dip

It may seem crazy to pair chocolate and chickpeas, but damn, it’s a thing. We’ve made chocolate chickpea cake before and that is a great cake. Really, what are chickpeas but flour waiting to happen. So basically this is just hummus but instead of using garlic and lemon juice you add some cocoa and sweetness. You can whip up a batch in minutes, and served with fresh fruit this becomes almost a protein packed and healthy fondue. Try chocolate hummus dip once and you’ll try it again.
