There is a misconception that keto lifestyle choices deprive you of the sweeter things in life, or that you have to spend more for specialty products. You can in fact enjoy treats like chocolate sauce without guilt. Make it yourself with a few ingredients and you are all set for a sugar free, low calorie full flavour treat.

Instructions
- Whisk together all the ingredients in a small saucepan
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. After 5 minutes the mixture will thicken.
