No, not really. While the major ingredient, chickpeas, are found in dessert hummus just like in regular hummus, the flavor is quite different. Chickpeas have a pretty mild flavor that’s slightly nutty which lends themselves well to combining with other ingredients to make a dessert. Initially,  I was concerned it would be overly “beany” in flavor or texture. However, I found that when blended long enough the texture was smooth and creamy and the dark chocolate gave it lots of flavor to camouflage any bean flavor that might be around. I find it has a bit of a cookie or cake batter flavor and consistency though it's a bit thicker.
