Ingredients
Steps
Soak the chickpeas in plenty of water for at least 12 hours.
Drain the soaking water and boil the chickpeas in fresh water until tender.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350 °F) (350°F (180 °C)).
Place the cooked and well-drained chickpeas on a baking sheet without adding any oil.
Bake for approximately 40 minutes until very crispy, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even cooking.
While the chickpeas cool slightly, melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave in short intervals.
Place all the crispy chickpeas into the melted chocolate and stir well until each chickpea is completely coated.
Spread the coated chickpeas onto a tray lined with parchment paper, separating them so they don't stick together in a single block.
Place in the freezer until the chocolate is cold and firm.
Notes
It is essential that the chickpeas are well-dried before putting them in the oven so they become truly crispy. You can also try a savory version using garlic powder and paprika before baking.
