DIRECTIONS
1
* Use fully-ripened bananas.
2
Rinse and drain chickpeas (garbanzo beans).
3
Add the bananas, chickpeas, cocoa powder, vinegar, salt, and cayenne to a blender. Cover and pulse a few times.
4
In a small saucepan, bring the milk to a simmer over medium. (Do not boil). Add the chocolate, remove from heat, and whisk or stir until the chocolate is fully melted, forming chocolate milk.
5
Add the chocolate milk to the banana mixture in the blender. Cover and purée on high speed until a velvety sauce forms, about 2 minutes.
6
Transfer to a medium bowl, cover, and chill until ready to serve. Serve chilled as dip. Or gently bring to a simmer and serve as fondue.
