Homemade Chocolate Syrup will make your mouth water and your stomach smile. What is better than Chocolate? I don’t know about you, but I love chocolate. Creamy, smooth, sweet, and chocolaty sauce on top of ice cream, or on top of a warm brownie. Believe it or not, this homemade sauce is way better than store-bought. Use it to make almond milk chocolate milk or a mocha coffee. Not to mention that it is refined sugar-free. The perfect accompaniment to any decadent dessert.
Homemade Chocolate Syrup:
In all honesty, this recipe will make about 1 1/2 cups. Simply make the syrup and pour it into a sterilized clean jar with a tight-fitting lid and store for several weeks in the fridge. However, I don’t think it will last that long. Nevertheless, you will find so many uses for this syrup. You might even begin wondering where it has been all your life. Use to drizzle on top of pancakes, waffles, crepes, ice cream, or cakes and brownies. Why not use it as a dipping sauce for fruit like bananas and apples. Or get creative and use to decorate your plate before topping it with a brownie or slice of cake. Indeed, the uses are only left up to your imagination.
