Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter optional for shine

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients

  • In a small saucepan, add cocoa powder, sugar and salt. Mix them well using a whisk. This helps remove lumps and creates a smooth base for your Drizzle Chocolate Syrup Recipe.

Add Water Slowly

  • Pour water into the pan slowly while whisking. Keep stirring until everything mixes well. The mixture should look smooth and slightly thick before heating begins.

Start Cooking the Mixture

  • Place the saucepan on medium heat. Stir continuously while it heats. Do not stop stirring because chocolate can stick easily. The mixture will slowly become shiny and rich.

Simmer Until Thick

  • Let the syrup gently simmer for about 5–7 minutes. Keep stirring often. It will slowly thicken and become glossy. This step is important for perfect texture in your homemade syrup.

Add Vanilla and Butter

  • Turn off the heat. Add vanilla extract and butter. Stir well until everything melts completely. This makes the Drizzle Chocolate Syrup Recipe smooth, rich and extra flavorful.

Cool and Store

  • Let the syrup cool for a few minutes. Then pour it into a clean glass jar or bottle. It will thicken more as it cools down completely.

Notes

  • Use dark cocoa for a richer taste
  • Add more sugar for sweeter syrup
  • Replace water with milk for creamy syrup
  • Add espresso powder for coffee flavor
  • Store in glass bottles for freshness
