Dessert Hummus? Yes please.

My birthday was Sunday and the Super Bowl was Sunday. My contribution to the party was dessert hummus.

I stumbled on these recipes. And I have every intention of making them again. I tried the chocolate chip cookie dough and the chocolate fudge brownie; both were divine. Next stop, the peanut butter.

sprinkle of cinnamon (optional, but add it)
1/4 C. chocolate chips

PREPARATION:
Add all ingredients except chocolate chips to food processor and blend until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips, chill and serve with fruit, pretzels, etc.

Chocolate Fudge Brownie Batter Dessert Hummus

2 T. almond butter
2 t. vanilla
5 T. honey (or agave)
1/4 C. cooked sweet potato (or squash or pumpkin)
1/4 C. cocoa

Peanut Butter Dessert Hummus:

1/3 C. natural peanut butter

1/4 C. honey (or agave)
1/4 C. cooked sweet potato (or squash or pumpkin)

I was just thinking, you could add chocolate chips to the brownie batter and the peanut butter or maybe cocoa to the peanut butter. Oh, the choices!!!
