There's nothing quite like a lovely chocolate sauce to drizzle over a dessert and this raw version is so simple to make. We chose a selection of fresh pineapple, mango and nectarine, but you could equally use this over raw ice cream.

Ingredients

• 4 tbsp raw cashew nuts
• 4 tbsp raw cacao powder
• 3-4 tbsp Sweet Freedom
• 1/2 cup water
• 1-2 tbsp virgin coconut oil, melted

Method

1. Place the cashew nuts in your blender and grinder to a powder
2. Add all the other ingedients and blend steadily for a minute or two

That's it!

Variations

If you wanted a warm chocolate sauce, say to drizzle over raw ice cream, simply gently heat your sauce over a ban marie.

You could make a thicker sauce by using less water, or replace some of the water with more coconut oil.

For a healthy dairy-free chocolate mousse, make triple the quantity, place in to four wine glasses or ramikins and leave it to set in the fridge before serving.
