Why You’ll Love Choc Chipotle

Crafted with care using homegrown Cornish chillies, this sauce is all about balance. The smoky undertones pair beautifully with rich chocolate sweetness, creating a flavour that works as well on tacos as it does in desserts. It’s the perfect way to add some intrigue to your everyday meals or elevate your dinner party menu.

1. Savoury Suggestions

  • Tacos with a Twist: Drizzle Choc Chipotle over pulled pork or black bean tacos for an earthy, smoky kick. Add a squeeze of lime and fresh coriander to tie it all together.
  • Bacon Butties with a Kick: Spread Choc Chipotle on buttered bread before layering on crispy bacon. The sauce’s sweetness complements the saltiness of the bacon, creating a sandwich that’s nothing short of a flavour bomb.
  • Glazed Roast Veggies: Toss carrots, parsnips, and sweet potatoes in a mix of olive oil and Choc Chipotle, then roast until caramelized.

2. Sweet Treats

  • Decadent Brownies: Add a spoonful of Choc Chipotle to your brownie batter for a smoky twist on the classic treat. The subtle spice works wonders with rich chocolate flavours.
  • Ice Cream Upgrade: For an indulgent dessert, drizzle Choc Chipotle over vanilla or salted caramel ice cream. The combination of hot and cold, sweet and spicy, is unforgettable.
  • Chipotle Hot Chocolate: Stir a spoonful of Choc Chipotle into a cup of steaming hot chocolate for a cozy drink with a fiery edge.

Recipe: Smoky Choc Chipotle Brownies

These brownies are fudgy, chocolatey, and have just the right amount of spice to keep your taste buds tingling.

Ingredients:

  • 200g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 150g unsalted butter
  • 3 large eggs
  • 250g caster sugar
  • 100g plain flour

  • 1-2 tbsp Cornish Chillies Choc Chipotle Sauce (adjust to taste)
  • A pinch of salt

Method

  • Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 180°C (160°C fan) and line a square baking tin with parchment paper.
  • Melt the Chocolate: In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate and butter together over a saucepan of simmering water. Once smooth, set aside to cool slightly.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until thick and pale. Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture, stirring until fully combined.
  • Add Dry Ingredients: Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Fold gently until no streaks remain.
