Recipe Notes
I mentioned that mentioned that using a can of garbanzo beans that are basically ready to go into a recipe is a great hack for this recipe. Also, I mentioned that chocolate flavor simply comes from using unsweetened cocoa powder, which is something that you probably already have in your kitchen cupboard.
I also mentioned that this recipe for vegan chocolate hummus works great in a food processor. I like to make mine in my Vitamix blender.
Sweetening for this hummus will come from maple syrup or honey. However, you could alternatively use a banana or sugar alternative instead.
