This delightful condiment comes together in minutes! Just start by chopping up your habanero pepper. Next, add the chocolate chips, habaneros, Kona coffee beans (or any other strong coffee), brown sugar, nutmeg, garlic powder, salt, and red pepper flakes to your food processor or blender.

What is Chocolate Habanero Hot Sauce?

It is a boiling sauce, but don’t let its reputation scare you. It has a rich, sweet, chocolatey flavor that masks the spice. Because the pepper is cut so fine, it doesn’t overpower the chocolate flavor and taste.

I love the depth of the coffee and chocolate flavors. The habanero has a great smoky flavor and just the right amount of heat to make it enjoyable!
