I made this simply because it looked interesting and I had extra cans of chickpeas. I used regular semi-sweet chips and regular baking powder. It was a very pleasant surprise at how good this cake tasted — almost like a cheesecake. We just put cool whip on the top and everyone that ate it thought it was very good. I will make it again!

This looks like one I would like! The addition of chickpeas,
makes it seem like more of a “health food”, than a dessert!
My doctor wants me to eat more beans and legumes as they help lower cholesterol…so, I think she would approve of this recipe! ;o)

I made this cake for a friend who is experimenting with a gluten free diet. The taste was really chocolaty, and it formed a nice top layer of crunchy. The non-dieters and dieter alike enjoyed the cake (and were pleased that you couldn’t actually taste the chickpeas). Thanks!
