Now, onto the actual topic at hand. FOOD! Food hasn't really been on my mind the past few days and I definitely haven't been cooking! However, I've been dying to share this recipe with you since I made it for my parents and then again last weekend!
Inspired by Chocolate Covered Katie
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups chickpeas (1 can, drained) (250g)
- 1/8 tsp plus 1/16 tsp salt
- tiny bit over 1/8 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup peanut butter {if you don’t want the peanut butter taste, you can sub oil for a regular chocolate chip cookie dough dip}
- 2 tbsp cup nondairy milk
- 2 to 3 T oats {You can omit, but also omit the milk if you do}
- Brown Sugar {I used 2 tbsp Splenda brown sugar blend. If using regular brown sugar, use 1/4 cup}
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
- Place all ingredients excluding chocolate chips into a blender or food processor.
- Blend for a minute or two until very smooth.
- Remove from blender or food processor and place in serving bowl.
- Mix in chocolate chips. Sprinkle a few on top for looks and you're ready to serve!
By the way, did I mention that this dip is actually healthy? I'm sure you figured it out by the fact that there are chick peas involved. I would definitely recommend this to everyone to bring to their next party! With the holiday season sneaking up on us quickly, this is an easy, fun treat to add to the table. Plus, you can use holiday chocolate chips or add sprinkles to make it festive! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
What's your favorite food to bring to a party?
Until next time...
With love and God bless,
