Prep Time 5 minutes
Servings: 12 tablespoons (makes 3/4 cup)
Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup agave nectar
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

Method
 

  1. Add the agave and cocoa powder to a medium resealable plastic container (a round one will be easiest to mix in).
  2. Using a sturdy whisk, mix until well combined and no lumps remain from the cocoa powder. Allow it to sit a few hours before using — it will taste fine immediately, but it thickens into a more fudge-like sauce over time.

Makes 3/4 cup.
