Ingredients

  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 cup Dried Whole Dates
  • 2 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  1. Add water and dates to a small sauce pan and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and allow to soak for 30-60 minutes.

  2. Add the dates with water and the rest of the ingredients to a high speed blender, and blend on high until smooth. If the sauce seems to thick, add more water, a tablespoon or two at a time, until it's a pourable consistency.

  3. Pour on everything!
