I made chocolate syrup today as a topping for ice cream, free of HFCS and the cocoa tastes lots better than commercial Nestle or Hersheys too :)
I used raw/untreated cocoa from Penzey's which is available in the US.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 cup cocoa powder
1 dash salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Combine the water, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt together in a saucepan over low heat; whisk constantly until the mixture thickens and begins to simmer. Remove from heat and stir the vanilla into the sauce. Serve warm or cover and refrigerate until serving.
