In a medium saucepan, add the whole beets and fill with enough water to cover the beets. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 45 minutes or until tender when pricked with a fork. Drain the beets and let cool slightly.
On a cutting board, cut off the hard tops and remove skins (they should easily slide off), and roughly chop.
Transfer the beets to a blender or food processor and puree for 1-2 minutes or until completely smooth, adding water in 1/4 cup increments if needed.
