Guilt-free indulgence is how I will describe is this Chocolate Hummus.
I am not the only one here praising the hummus here I have the western world agreeing with me!
For FoodieMondayBlogHop this week Kalyani has set us about making #236Hummus Time. You want healthy, traditional and vegan recipes go to Kalyani who blogs at Sizzling TasteBuds. The one pod I am eyeing right now is this Podi there are many more but the current todo is this one.
So, Hummus is relatively new in my place and I use it generally like a chutney, a condiment with idlis, dosas or a spread for sandwiches. I am not sure how a variant will be accepted at home so made just a little.
Guessing from the reactions of hubby and kiddo who is preparing for her 12th board examination I can safely say this is a clean eating idea.
Hummus is pronounced as hu.muhs or“HOOM-uhs.
Hummus means chickpeas in Arabic, but Houmous, as it is also called, is synonyms with as a spread or dip now. Hummus originated in Egypt but is popular worldwide.
To make Hummus you need chickpeas, olive oil, sesame seeds, lemon, garlic and salt.
Since Houmous is rich in nutrients and proteins it is hence considered a health food. Serve Hummus in a party with bread, pita, crackers.
There are variations to healthy Hummus we have beetroot Hummus, Fava bean Hummus, Avocado Hummus to name a few.
No, it is not.
I am not the first person to copy someone to make what we like.
In fact, in the food industry, I do not think anyone has copyright over any dish or process. Somewhere, someone has similar thinking after all,” great minds…”
Anyway, this Chocolate Dessert Hummus as is also called Brownie Batter Hummus and is mass-produced now. You will get different flavours now Peanut Butter Hummus is one of them.
Like in Hummus you will need
Since I used only 1 cup of chickpeas and so I could blend all the ingredients in the chutney pot.
Okay, today I had not anticipated making this Hummus or having any appreciative audience and so I have served it with biscuits, Marie biscuits, they are like digestive biscuits. The Hummus tasted awesome when sandwiched between 2 of them and was an excellent snack with tea.
The sky is the limit and yes do share your serving ideas.
Enjoy the Dessert Hummus as a dessert(of course), breakfast spread, after school snack, after a workout too. How about enjoying it with friends after lunch in your workplace! Elevenses?
So folks dip away!

The Girl Next Door says
Much as I love hummus, I have never tried my hands at the ‘dessert’ variety. Love the idea of this sweetened chocolate-flavoured hummus. It looks brilliant!
ArchanaPotdar says
Thanks.
Mayuri Patel says
Archana I had decided to make chocolate hummus and had bought the chocolate and strawberries. However, hubby didn’t want a sweet hummus and so went to plan B. But will try out at some point as your recipe is urging me even more to make it. I can imagine having it on its own.Though different flavored hummus grace the shelves in the western world, unique flavored hummus for us are a novelty.
ArchanaPotdar says
I am humbled Mayuri with your comment.
Sujata Roy says
Wow what an innovative recipe. Chocolate hummus never thought about it. Looks lipsmackingly delicious. I would love to have it as a spread on Biscuit, bread or spoonful only hummus. Lovely share.

Chef Mireille says
it has chocolate but I am wondering is it sweet or savory since it does not have sugar? or is it like mole with chocolate but still savory?
ArchanaPotdar says
It is not sweet Mir a little salty and just right in my place.
Maria says
We love hummus at our place, especially my husband. That’s why I know this brilliant recipe for Chocolate Hummus will be an instant hit with him. I think it would taste equally amazing with both fruit wedges and biscuits. A keeper of a recipe, Archana!
ArchanaPotdar says
Thanks, Maria.
Azlin Bloor says

ArchanaPotdar says

Wow – love the idea of making chocolate dessert hummus. This would be such a treat for everyone. I would use it for a dip with fresh strawberries. Also a great way of getting kids to eat chickpeas.
