Trader Joe's new Chocolate Hummus puts a dessert-like spin on a classic spread that makes the traditionally savory spread ideal for enjoying with pieces of pretzel, fresh or dried fruit or even sweet crackers or chips. The decadent dessert hummus boasts a base of cooked chickpeas, tahini, canola oil and sea salt, which keeps it true to a classic hummus more than a dessert spread.
The product boasts just 60 calories per serving and promises to satisfy one's sweet tooth in a nourishing way. In place of some of the most popular ingredients that are often mixed into hummus, Trader Joe's favors the use of cane sugar, cocoa and natural flavors to create a sweet and satisfying flavor profile.
Like classic hummus, Trader Joe's Chocolate Hummus can be found in the store's refrigerated deli cases.
