No matter the question, CHOCOLATE is the answer…
this homemade chocolate syrup recipe is not only easy and ready in minutes it’s SO delicious.
Chocolate milk is an all-time favorite,
with almost everyone, I talk to!
From kids to adults to post-workout refueling, chocolate milk is great to quench your chocolate craving fast…
So whether you want to swirl some syrup into your glass of milk,
or drizzle it over some ice cream,
this is the way to go.
Homemade is best, and it’s very true in this case.
If you want to know how I really love using this chocolate syrup…
it’s in mixed in a glass with coconut seltzer and some cream,
like a coconut chocolate egg cream… that you’d get in an old fashioned soda shop from years past.
With delicious dutch cocoa and great tasting vanilla extract, you are minutes away from enjoying this chocolate syrup.
Just imagine all your favorite treats topped with chocolate syrup, ice cream, yogurt, milkshakes and of course the beloved chocolate milk!
This will cure any chocolate craving!

I made this last night, and already slathered it on my homemade chocolate frozen yogurt!!! Yummmers!! Do you refrigerate it?
Kim says
How long does this last if stored in the refrigerator?
Diane says
It will lasts a few months in the fridge, there is nothing in there that spoils (like dairy and such) but it you leave it at room temperature there are no preservative and even simple syrup is refrigerated if not used quickly. I believe it will last staying fresh until you use it, but at my house that isn’t very long-so I haven’t had a jar for more than a month 🙂
