Chocolate Syrup

Does anyone else get so frustrated with taking price tag stickers off?  I think I spent 20 minutes the other day taking them off some new dishes.  I even used a blow dryer because the heat usually makes it easier but these stickers had cuts in them so there were like 12 pieces.  But let’s talk about something that makes everything better… CHOCOLATE!

choco syrup2I grew up in a home of five girls and one boy so yes, there was always LOTS of chocolate around.  One type of chocolate we always had on hand was my mom’s homemade chocolate syrup.  We used it daily to make chocolate milk and mix in our ice cream.

It’s so much better than what you can buy at the store.  Plus it is made with real sugar instead of corn syrup!  Oh and I recommend buying vanilla at Costco or Sams if you want to save some money.

Chocolate Syrup

Servings: 2 quarts
Author: Garnish and Glaze

Ingredients

  • 4 cups sugar
  • 1 8 ounce can cocoa
  • 1 quart water
  • 4 tablespoons vanilla

Instructions

  • In a large pot, mix sugar and cocoa together. Stir in water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat (if too high it will splatter all over the place). Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens and is desired consistency.
  • Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
  • Store in jars (or squeeze bottle for easy dispense) and keep in the fridge.
  • Use in milk and ice cream.

    Hi Melanie! I assume this needs to stay refrigerated?

    I am going to assign this out to one of my kids to make for us! They all love chocolate milk and always want a sweet treat in the afternoon. This would be perfect! Thanks Melanie. I am really loving all of your recipes! (And thanks for visiting my blog and for taking the time to comment. My family hasn’t quite figured out how much it means if they would just leave a little comment!)

    I didn’t think to buy vanilla at Sam’s! Thanks for this tip! I made my own chocolate syrup a few years ago and completely agree! It’s so much better than the store bought!
