Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 cup good quality unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup cold water
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the cocoa powder and sugar until blended. Add the water and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, and whisk over medium heat until boiling, stirring constantly.
Continue boiling until mixture thickens, about 3 minutes. The mixture will still be fairly thin (it thickens to a syrup-like consistency once cool). Taste and stir in additional salt until dissolved, up to 1/4 teaspoon, if desired.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. Cool. Taste again. If it's not sweet enough for you, add a bit more sugar and stir in the warm syrup until dissolved.
Store syrup in an airtight glass container in the refrigerator. The syrup should keep, refrigerated, for at least a month.

Tips:

For a richer chocolate flavor, use unsweetened cocoa powder instead of chocolate chips.
If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the syrup by dropping a small amount into a cup of cold water. If the syrup forms a soft ball, it is ready.
Store the chocolate syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
You can use chocolate syrup to make chocolate milk, chocolate cake, chocolate frosting, and other desserts.
For a vegan version of chocolate syrup, use almond milk instead of regular milk and maple syrup instead of sugar.

Conclusion:

Chocolate syrup is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of desserts. It is easy to make at home with just a few simple ingredients. With these tips, you can make the perfect chocolate syrup every time. Enjoy!
