Description

Ingredients

  • 1 1⁄2 c water
  • 3 c sugar
  • 1 1⁄2 c Dutch-processed cocoa
  • 1 T vanilla extract
  • 1 t Kosher salt
  • 1 1⁄2 c water
  • 3 c sugar
  • 1 1⁄2 c Dutch-processed cocoa
  • 1 T vanilla extract
  • 1 t Kosher salt

Instructions

Bring the water to boil with the sugar, slowly blend in the cocoa, salt and vanilla extract. Whisk it till it's smooth, and then reduce until it's thick, stirring often (but not non-stop). Let it cool, but keep the whisk handy for scaring away the inevitable children hoping to sneak their fingers into the now-cooling concoction.

Pour into a squeeze bottle, and you have syrup that is better than the stuff in the can!

I was at a restaurant supply house Sunday and we bought 5 lbs of cocoa powder from Hersheys for 17$.

Just a headsup.
