My kids are chocolate milk freaks..they love the stuff! I like to buy the Trader Joe's brand because it doesnt have any questionable ingredients, but its expensive and its far from my house. One day we ran out, so I made some homemade and it is really good! Once its sat in the refrigerator overnight the consistency is really close to store bought...here are the ingredients:
Just mix the first first 4 ingredients in a saucepan till its bubbly and starts getting thicker, like a syrup...but do it on low or that stuff will burn you and make a mess on your stove! Once its done, add your vanilla and put it into a container of some sort. I used a jar from some jam that I recycled.
Put into the fridge over night and mix into your milk, pour over ice cream...or however you like to eat chocolate syrup.
Enjoy!
AWESOME! I'm going to try this.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you posted this! I try and make everything homemade but there are some things I simply don't think of. I just made it and it was a success! Do you mind if I post this in my blog if I link back to you?
ReplyDeleteOooh, that sounds wonderful. I buy my stuff chocolate milk mix--the kind from Winco--but I really hate buying it. This is a great alternative! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know I finally got around to posting this. I changed the recipe slightly. I don't use vanilla in mine just to make my vanilla go father. Thanks again! http://helpfulhousewife.blogspot.com/2010/07/homemade-chocolate-syrup.html
