Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup cocoa powder unsweetened, sifted, good quality, dutch processed
  • 1-1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup water cold
  • 1-2 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  1. Sift the cocoa powder into a a medium pot, add the sugar and salt, whisk together.
  2. Place the pot on low/medium heat and slowly add the water, while whisking continuously, bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 3 minutes, all the while whisking continuously.
  3. The mixture should be smooth and start to thicken. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Pour the syrup into a clean heat proof glass jar or bottle, let cool for about 30 minutes, then refrigerate. It will thicken while cooling. Enjoy.

The syrup should be refrigerated within 2 hours of being made.

Notes

  • To make hot or cold chocolate drink, add 2 tablespoon of syrup for every cup of milk. The syrup can also be warmed to us as a sauce over cakes or ice cream. Stir the syrup before using. 
  • The chocolate syrup should be stored in an airtight container or tight fitting jar in the fridge, stir or shake well or before using. It will keep for up to 2 weeks in the fridge.
  • You can freeze chocolate syrup also. Place it in a freezer safe container, or ice cube tray. 
  • Thaw the frozen syrup in the fridge or at room temperature, stirring until smooth.
