So many people resolve to eat better and live healthier and one way to do that is to lower the amount of sweets you intake. That’s actually the hardest thing for me to do, I have a KILLER sweet tooth, so I just have to learn how to make my sugar healthy and take it in moderation. Substituting Truvia in the place of sugar in recipes is a great place to start. Truvia baking blend is designed for easy, at-home baking, and is a blend of Truvia® natural sweetener and sugar. Truvia® Baking Blend provides sugar-like taste and texture in recipes, but with 75% fewer calories and twice the amount of sweetness than sugar. Truvia® Baking Blend is available at retail stores nationwide in a 1.5 pound bag with a closeable, easy-to-use pour spout. I love how easy it is to store and pour. We’ve been experimenting in our kitchen and here is a recipe my kids enjoy.

I’m an ambassador for Truvia and compensated for my time, my opinions are always my own.
Wow I have never even heard of chocolate hummus or would ever thought to put those two words together. I would love to try this
sounds delicious and easy to make. what a great recipe.
I have heard of hummus before, but have never tried it. Not sure about this one, but willing to try it!
I love hummus, but had never heard of a chocolate version. Sounds tasty!
This looks good but when I read that it has garbanzo beans I thought how intersting, i’m not a lover of garbanzo beans but it sounds healthy and looks good so would definitely like to give this a try.
Just tried it and its fabulous! If you’re expecting a chocolate sauce, this won’t be your thing. But if you’re looking for healthy options to super sugary ones, this will make your day! I will definitely make this again!! Thanks so much!
