Preparation Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 tsp. Coconut Sugar
  • 75ml water
  • 1 x 400g tin chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 heaped tbsp. Cacao Powder
  • 2 tbsp. Creamed Coconut, melted
  • 1 tbsp. sacha inci oil or olive oil
  • A pinch of Lucy Bee Himalayan Salt, ground
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Method

  1. In a small bowl, mix the Coconut Sugar with water until it dissolves, then add this along with all of the remaining ingredients to a blender. Blend until fully combined - you may need to scrape down the sides half-way through to help incorporate it all.
  2. Taste test and adjust accordingly – add more Cacao Powder for a richer chocolate taste; more water for a thinner consistency; more Coconut Sugar for a sweeter spread; and more sacha inchi oil l for a nuttier flavour.
  3. Serve with fresh fruit, such as apples, bananas and strawberries, or use as a spread on toast.
  4. Store covered, in an airtight container, refrigerate and consume within 5 days.
