Notes
- Keep your chickpea chocolate spread in a sealed glass container or jar in your fridge for up to 1 week. Freeze it for up to 3 months.
- Don't forget to scrape the sides of the food processor bowl during processing. This will ensure a smooth texture. Add a tablespoon of water at a time if needed for texture and/or thinner consistency.
