Chocolate sauce
Chocolate sauce
Yields: 1 cup
Ingredients
¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons maple syrup
¾ cup raw cacao powder
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ tablespoons coconut oil warmed to liquid
Pinch of salt
Steps
Combine all the ingredients except the coconut oil in a blender. Blend until smooth. While the blender is still running add the coconut oil.
Store it in a sealed container in the fridge or you can freeze it.
You can use it to enhance any dessert. I put it on top of a banana “nice cream” sundae, drizzle it over one of my chocolate nut butter balls or make a healthier chocolate turtle, which is made by stuffing a whole date with a couple of pecans and dipped in chocolate.
