Ingredients
  

  • ½ tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 tablespoon ancho chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup gluten-free broth I used vegetable
  • 2 cups or one 15-ounce can tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips I use Enjoy Life Foods® or Pascha® vegan chips
  • 2 tablespoons nut butter or seed butter of choice
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds optional

Instructions

  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, briefly warm oil, chili powder, cumin, cinnamon and salt until fragrant, stirring to combine. Add broth. Then stir in tomato sauce, chocolate chips and nut butter.
  • Cook until chips are melted. Taste to see if you prefer additional chili powder to make the sauce spicier or additional nut butter to cut the spicy heat. Adjust seasoning accordingly.
  • Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, if using.
