White chocolate sauce with cacao butter

DIY white chocolate sauce using cacao butter to avoid soy, seed oils, and artificial flavors.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup organic cane sugar
  • 1/2 cup organic sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 oz cacao butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (I prefer raw, full fat)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt

Directions

  1. 1

    Add water and sugar to a medium saucepan. Heat on low until the sugar has been dissolved.

  2. 2

    Add the condensed milk and simmer on medium heat for 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Turn off the heat and add the cacao butter. Whisk until melted.

  4. 4

    Bring the mixture to a boil. Keep an eye on the mixture, as it can overflow in the pan. Adjust the heat accordingly. You will want it to be at a roiling boil for another 3-4 minutes to make sure that the cacao butter is thoroughly combined and will not separate. Stir occasionally.

  5. 5

    Turn off the heat and add the heavy cream. Bring up to a simmer again for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  6. 6

    Turn off the heat and add the vanilla and sea salt. Whisk thoroughly to combine.

  7. 7

    Add to a container and refrigerate!

Notes

Note: Sauce can be stored at least 4 weeks in the refrigerator.
