Add all of the ingredients including the drained chickpeas, maple syrup, nut butter, cocoa powder and vanilla extract to a blender or food processor. Now pour in two tablespoons of water and blend the ingredients until silky smooth. You may need to add more water to loosen the dip, but be sure to do this one tablespoon at a time to avoid a watery consistency.

Once blended, stir the dip a few times to ensure it’s ready to eat then serve straight away. Trending Enjoy a one tablespoon serving (approximately 44 calories-worth) of the decadent dip with a side of your choice. The recipe makes 24 servings.

The prepared hummus can be kept in an airtight container and refrigerated for up to a week. Any leftovers can be divided into smaller portions and frozen for up to three months. When you're ready to indulge, allow the dip to thaw in the fridge overnight and give it a good stir before serving.

Alternatively, you can thaw it and blend it for a few seconds to regain its creamy texture..
