If you've purchased whole chipotles in adobo, blend them with a food processor or an immersion blender. Measure based on the blended quantity.
Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and stir together with a hand mixer (or whisk by hand) until it's thick and the volume is slightly larger than the beginning - not quite doubled but a noticeable change.
For best taste and texture, allow to sit overnight or around 8 hours. This will allow the flavors of the sauce to fully develop.
Store in the fridge in a squirt bottle for up to 2 weeks if all ingredients are fresh.
Letting this recipe rest overnight is optional, but allows the flavors to combine very well like marinating overnight.
This recipe was pulled together by incorporating the best parts of recipes from Yummylicious, Winkaway at Group Recipes, and Blog Chef.
The steps marked optional are not mandatory for a good sauce but highly recommended. If you decide to leave out optional ingredients/steps, it will likely still turn out good but will not be spot on. If you want a perfect copycat, follow the recipe to a T.
