Chocolate chickpea hummus is a delicious and unique twist on the traditional hummus recipe. It combines the creamy goodness of chickpeas with the rich flavour of chocolate, creating a sweet dip that kids won’t be able to resist. And the best part is that making my simple Choc Chickpea Hummus Dip is quick and easy, requiring just a few simple ingredients and a food processor or blender. Enjoy it as a dip served with strawberries, bananas, apple slices, wholegrain crackers or my selection of healthy cookies. You can also use it as a frosting on muffins, spread on toast or as a filling for pinwheels or sandwiches.
