Things You’ll Need
1 cup water
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 cup sugar
Dash of salt
1 tsp. vanilla
Jar with lid or squeeze bottle

Combine 1/2 cup cocoa, 1 cup sugar and a dash of salt in a saucepan over medium heat.

Add 1 cup water slowly to the mixture, and whisk until smooth.

Bring the mixture to a soft boil for about one minute while stirring.

Remove the pan from the heat, and place in the freezer for about five minutes to chill. When the mixture has cooled to the touch, stir in 1 tsp. vanilla.

Pour the chocolate syrup mixture in a jar with a lid or a squeeze bottle, and refrigerate. The mixture keeps safely for around four weeks.

I love it when I can easily make something at home and it turns out to be just as good or better than the more expensive store-bought kind. Ive been wanting to try some homemade chocolate syrup.The basic recipe is very simple, but there are a few variations of it, so the other day I decided to experiment with them and have a chocolate syrup taste test. Not a shabby way to spend the afternoon!

The one I liked the best was from Amy Dacyczyns The Complete Tightwad Gazette.

1 cup cocoa powder
1 cup water
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix the cocoa powder and the water in a saucepan. Heat and stir to dissolve the cocoa. Add the sugar, and stir to dissolve. Boil for 3 minutes over medium heat. Be careful not to let it get too hot and boil over! Add the salt and the vanilla. Let cool. Pour into a clean glass jar, and store in the refrigerator. Keeps for several months, but trust me it will be gone before then. Yields two cups.

The result is very rich, so I only use a teaspoon for a glass of chocolate milk.

I poured the chocolate into a flip-top glass bottle and added a label. These would make cute hostess gifts or party favors!
