Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup chipotle sauce
  • 1 tsp sugar optional, adjust to taste
  • 1 tbsp honey

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of mayonnaise and 1 cup of chipotle sauce. Make sure to measure the ingredients accurately for the perfect balance of creamy and spicy flavors.
  • Using a whisk or a spoon, stir the mayonnaise and chipotle sauce together until the mixture is smooth and all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
  • If you prefer a slightly sweet twist, add 1 teaspoon of sugar to the mixture. Stir well to ensure the sugar dissolves.
  • Gradually add 1 tablespoon of honey while stirring continuously. This will balance the smoky heat from the chipotle sauce with just the right amount of sweetness.
  • Transfer the sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This step is crucial for allowing the flavors to meld together, creating that signature Dave’s Hot Chicken taste.
  • Once the sauce has chilled, it’s ready to serve! Pair it with your favorite fried chicken, fries, or even use it as a spread for burgers and sandwiches.

Notes

To store Dave’s Hot Chicken Sauce, transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5 days. Keep it chilled to preserve freshness and flavor.
Since the sauce is cold, there’s no need to reheat it; simply stir well before serving. If you prefer a warmer sauce, lightly microwave it for 10-15 seconds.
