- 1/4 cup oat flour see notes for substitutes
- 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2-3 tablespoons cocoa powder for dusting on top
Instructions
- Add chickpeas, salt, vanilla, brown sugar, and oat flour to a food processor or blender. Process until very smooth. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the processor a few times. Transfer the mixture to a separate bowl and mix in the chocolate chips. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours.

Notes
Instead of oat flour, you can substitute heat treated all purpose flour or heat treated whole wheat flour. You can also make oat flour by blending 1/4 rolled oats in a strong blender.
