Preparation
- Step 1
Combine cocoa and brown sugar in a small saucepan. Gradually add the buttermilk, stirring to blend smoothly with a wooden spoon. Cook, over medium heat, stirring with a whisk, until the sugar dissolves, about two minutes. Remove from heat. The sauce will thicken as it cools and will keep in the refrigerator for several weeks in a tightly closed container.
Private Notes
Comments
Delicious over buttermilk pancakes. Used granulated sugar— worked perfectly.
5 minutes is conservative: it took only about 2 minutes to warm and be blended and ready! Keep in mind that it’s bittersweet - which is what I wanted - but some prefer their sauces sweeter.
