How to Make Healthy Chocolate Hummus
Making this dessert hummus in a food processor is easier, but if you don’t have one (or don’t want to haul it out) a high speed blender will work as well.
Special Note: Depending on the speed and strength of your food processor/blender you may need to add more water to thin out the chocolate dessert hummus. Add 1 teaspoon of water at a time to avoid soggy chocolate dipping sauce.
