/A quick & easy recipe to celebrate any occasion! Use this nutritious decadent chocolate sauce to drizzle on organic fruit or create a chocolate fondue!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of filtered water
- 7 – 9 pitted Medjool dates (pitted baking dates are cheaper and work well too)
- 1/2 cup raw organic cacao powder
- 5 tbsp of hemp seeds
- ¼ cup coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp of organic green stevia or add more dates if you would like sweeter
- pinch (1/8 tsp) sea salt

- Will keep for: 5 days in the fridge or you can freeze for a longer period of time
Method
- If the Medjool dates are dry, try soaking them for 10 – 20 minutes to soften before making the sauce (otherwise you will end up with chunky bits!).
- Blend all ingredients together in blender until smooth.
