I have tried several recipes for homemade chocolate syrup. Some I have been pleased with but none of them have been recipes I wanted to stick with. So off I would search for another recipe.

It seems I have found a homemade chocolate syrup recipe to make anyone slap their grandma – well, not really, but it IS that good. Please don’t go and slap your grandma, but I do encourage you to try this easy homemade chocolate syrup!

Chocolate Syrup

Ingredients:

1 cup water

1 cup organic sugar (rapadura, demerara or sucanat) I used sucanat and achieved a perfectly thick syrupy syrup!

3 tablespoons butter

1/4 cup cream

1 1/4 cups cocoa powder

2 teaspoons vanilla

Boil water and sugar until it forms syrup (about 10 minutes). Turn heat on low. whisk in butter till melted then slowly whisk in cocoa powder, then cream, stirring until smooth. Add vanilla and stir in well. Store in glass jar or squeeze bottle in fridge.
