Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Cacao butter
- 120 milliliters Coconut cream
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Finely chop the cacao butter into small pieces for even melting.
In a small saucepan, add the cacao butter and melt it over low heat, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Once the cacao butter is fully melted, reduce the heat to low and stir in the coconut cream until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the saucepan. Stir until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Simmer the mixture on low heat for 2-3 minutes, continuing to stir, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool slightly—it will thicken more as it cools.
Transfer the dairy-free white chocolate sauce to a jar or serving container. Use immediately or let it cool completely before storing in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
When ready to use after refrigeration, gently reheat in a saucepan or microwave to restore its pourable consistency.
