Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Water
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and salt until evenly combined and no lumps remain.
Step 2
Pour in the water and whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
Step 4
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let the syrup simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. The syrup will slightly thicken as it cooks.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 6
Let the chocolate syrup cool completely in the saucepan. It will thicken further as it cools.
Step 7
Once cooled, transfer the syrup to an airtight container or a clean glass jar. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 weeks.
Step 8
To use, stir well before serving. Enjoy over ice cream, in milkshakes, or as a topping for your favorite desserts!
