Low Carb Guinness Chocolate Sauce
Notes
This is a rich and hearty chocolate sauce. The Guinness and coffee really intensifies the chocolate experience. Don't be afraid of the sauce separating. That can happen when working with high cacao concentration chocolate. If you see it happening—it starts to look grainy or thickens suddenly—immediately jump on the ice water solution described in the recipe. Add it a spoon at a time and slow stir. We can honestly say with patience and guts, we've never lost a chocolate sauce!
Serving Ideas Serve over low carb ice cream or your favorite low carb mug cake such as the Fluffys Keto Chocolate Cake.
