Chocolate Hummus

I have wanted to try Chocolate Hummus ever since Debbi shared her recipe almost 2 years ago!  I just never got around to making it since I knew I'd be the only person in the house that would eat it.  I really didn't want to make the entire batch of it for myself.  I probably could have cut the recipe in half, but that thought never occurred to me until just now.

Tuesday morning, I had the perfect opportunity to whip up a batch of delicious Chocolate Hummus.  We had company coming over and I wanted to offer a healthy snack to our guests.

I set out a bowl of veggies with some store-bought roasted red pepper hummus for a more savory snack along with a bowl of fruit with the Chocolate Hummus for dipping.

Mmm!  So good!  I'm so glad I finally got around to trying it!

Ingredients: 
  • 1 can chick peas, drained/rinsed 
  • 2 Tbs. coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 4 Tbs. honey
  • salt, to taste 
  • 2-4 Tbs. warm water 
Directions:

I really loved this healthy snack!  It was especially delicious on strawberries!  I'm just sorry it took me so long to make it!
