Step by Step Process of Making Chocolate Syrup

For your convenience, we have structured the whole recipe in a number of steps –

  1. First, take the cocoa powder (3 tablespoons). It could be of any brand of your choice. But the more bitter and darker the cocoa powder is, the more dense and chocolaty your syrup will turn out to be.
  2. Sieve the cocoa powder. This will help the powder to dissolve into water quickly.
  3. Now take a saucepan and pour 2 cups of water in it. Heat it up.
  4. Add the powdered sugar. The measurement for sugar is 1 cup.
  5. Put the cocoa powder in the water now. Stir it with a ladle in medium flame. Make sure that there are no lumps in the mixture.
  6. Add a pinch of salt. This will help to balance the taste.
  7. Once the mixture starts to boil, take it off the heat and let it cool for some time.
  8. In this step, you can add a few drops of vanilla essence. It will give the syrp a nice fragrance and flavor. If you don’t prefer the flavor of vanilla, you can skip this step.
  9. The Chocolate Syrup is fully prepared now. Make sure it’s not hot. You may pour it in an air-sealed container. Store it in a cool dry place to preserve for a long time.
