I remember the first time I found chocolate hummus at the store, I literally ate the entire container in one sitting! It was SO good! At the time there wasn’t the variety of dessert hummuses that there are today, so I knew I needed to create my own delicious flavors! And when I’m thinking about improving upon chocolate hummus, the clear next step from chocolate is Nutella! And thus Nutella Hummus was created.

How to Make Nutella Hummus

This is so incredibly easy to make, and you don’t have to turn on your oven! Just throw everything in a food processor and run it until well blended. It will start to look like hummus pretty quickly, but it will still be a bit chunky, so if you want it smooth, you’ll want to run the food processor a bit longer.

How to Eat Nutella Hummus

This header sounds so funny, but there are so many delicious things to dip into Nutella hummus! My personal favorite is pretzels, but fruit is also great, especially strawberries, or graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or even pita bread. I really don’t think you can go wrong here!
