1cancanned garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained and rinsed well
1/2cuphoney
1/2cupcocoa powder
1/3cupcreamy peanut butter (or nut butter)
2tspvanilla extract
1/8tspalmond extract
1/8tspsea salt
1/4cupwater, add in small increments
1/4cupmini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Place all ingredients in food processor EXCEPT the water and blend until mixture is smooth. Add the water slowly, until the consistency is creamy and smooth with no chunks or bits of chickpea are detectable. If the "batter" is not creamy enough it will be hard to dip your fruit in.
(Optional) If you are wanting to add mini chocolate chips to your brownie batter you can do this 2 ways: add them to your food processor and pulse until they are just mixed in OR after you scoop the hummus into a container, top with the mini chocolate chips.
Store in an air-tight container for up to a a week. Serve with berries, sliced apples, crackers, pretzels, Nilla wafers, dried banana chips, etc or eat it plain with a spoon! ...A big, big spoon!
Notes
Calories include optional chocolate chips...because are chocolate chips ever really optional?! ;)
