Dairy-Free Chocolate Sauce

Instructions

• Combine cocoa powder and salt in a small bowl; set aside.
• Bring water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Whisk in cocoa mixture slowly until incorporated. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
• Pour sauce into a storage container and let cool at room temperature, uncovered, until thickened. Cover and store in the refrigerator.
