2. Once the time has passed, drain them, rinse them again and dry them well by dabbing them gently with absorbent paper.
3. Take a blender and add the chickpeas, cocoa and butter, blending everything well. The chickpeas must be completely blended.
4. Once you have reached the desired consistency, add the honey (or 3 teaspoons of sugar) and blend again to mix the ingredients well and eliminate any possible lumps. The delicious chocolate hummus is finally ready to be enjoyed.
