1 15-ouncecan cannellini beans no salt addeddrained (you could sub garbanzo beans but they do have a stronger flavor)
1tablespoonpeanut butteralmond butter, cashew butter or defatted peanut flour or PB2.
1/2cupunsweetened cocoa or cacao powder
1teaspoonof instant espresso coffee – optional leave out for caffeine free
4large pitted Medjool dates that are moist and plumpadjust qty for personal preference
1teaspoonof good quality real vanilla extract
1/2cupwater or more if needed
Instructions
Throw everything into a food processor, process until smooth adding more water if needed. I made it in my high powered Vitamix blender and it worked well but you won't be able to make it in a regular blender as it is very thick. You can make it as thin or thick as you want.
Add less water for more of a ganache, frosting or hummus texture. If you want more of a pudding/mousse add more liquid such as water, juice or almond milk.
Notes
Servings Size: 4) 1/2 cup servings or 8) 1/4 cup servingsServing Suggestions: spread on chunks of bananas, use to frost cupcakes, cookies or brownies, serve in small dishes garnished with cut up strawberries or raspberries. It would be pretty layered in dessert shot glasses alternating with layers of fresh fruit!
