Homemade Chocolate Syrup Dairy-Free
Making my own homemade chocolate syrup was so easy, and I wish I had done it sooner!
The cost-savings on this I'm sure is significant which is always a bonus.
Plus, I can control the sugar content. SWEET! Pun intended.
The kids love chocolate syrup in almond milk and on dairy-free ice cream.
And I love to use it in my own almond milk iced mochas.
You should give this a try. It feels like a huge accomplishment, but it's so easy.

DIRECTIONS
In a saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa powder, and salt and whisk to combine.
Pour the water over the mixture and whisk as you turn on the heat.
Keep whisking until the dry mixture is whisked into the water.
Heat the mixture over medium high heat, whisking occasionally, until it reaches a simmer.
Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes.

What is whole raw sugar?
Hi Diane! I buy it in a box called Sugar in the Raw. The actual name is turbinado, it's just a way to buy sugar less processed. We also really like it as a topping for muffins, a more crunchy sugar. Hope that helps!
@Jamie Kaufmann,
Thank you! I’m going to try your recipe.
Yay! Happy to hear that.
