Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Hummus

I am addicted to Pinterest

For those of you who don't know the glorious wonderment that is Pinterest, it is a virtual pin board where you can link to pictures of anything online, or you can take your own pictures and pin them to one of your boards. 

I have pinned tons of recipes I want to try and it is likely I will never get to most of them... 

But here is one I did try!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Hummus
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Hummus
  • 15 oz chick peas
  • 1/4 c peanut butter (I used Trader Joe's Valencia Peanut Butter with Roasted Flax Seeds)
  • 1/4 c + 2 T maple syrup (I eyeballed it out of a 1/2 c)
  • 1/2 T vanilla (oops, I used 1/2t...I'm sure that extra vanilla would make it even better!)
  • 1/4 c chocolate chips (I used vegan carob chips, and more like 1/2 c
  1. Put everything but chips in food processor, process until creamy.
  2. Stir in chocolate chips.
  3. Eat directly out of food processor bowl with spoon...or put it in a serving dish with apples, graham crackers, really just anything you can dip...

It is delicious!  Tasted like peanut butter cookie dough.

See, I have photographic evidence!!

  1. this is intriguing. Never heard of such a thing - certainly looks like cookie dough. Which I have not had in a very long time! I may have to interview the test subjects to determine the validity of the photos...but definitely interesting. If you make it with some other nut butter, I would eat it. :-)
