Ingredients:
- 1 cup date sugar/date paste/blended dates
- 1 squeezed lemon
- Vanilla extract powder (optional)
Instructions:
- In a small pot, add the date sugar, the lemon juice, and a bit of warm water. Put it on low heat, and stir, letting it cook for 2-5 minutes.
- Add more water if necessary while stirring, to make a smooth paste--add more water if you want it to be runnier, or let it steam for the water to evaporate if you want it thicker. Make sure to keep stirring for it not to stick to the pot.
- Take off the heat, and mix in the amount of vanilla powder that you prefer (optional)--usually a pinch of vanilla powder should be more than enough. You can adjust the taste by adding more lemon juice, and mixing it in.
