How to Make No Fat Chocolate Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup cornstarch and 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder until completely combined and there are no lumps.
  2. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of cold water until smooth.
  3. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk, until the mixture comes to a rolling boil and thickens significantly. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Continue to stir for 1 minute to ensure the sauce is fully thickened.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of your preferred sweetener (such as sugar, maple syrup, or stevia) and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  6. Cover the saucepan and let the sauce cool completely. This helps it thicken further.
  7. Transfer the cooled chocolate sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow it to fully set. Store in the refrigerator for up to 6 weeks.
  8. **Mocha Sauce Variation:** Substitute 2 cups of freshly brewed strong coffee for the water in step 2.
