What you will need to make this rich chocolate syrup recipe

• Hot Water
• Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
• Allulose (or other keto sweetener)
• Stevia
• Vanilla Extract
• Sea Salt

Let’s get to making this simple recipe of delicious chocolate syrup!

This recipe for Homemade Low Carb Gluten Free Chocolate Syrup is very simple and after you see how easy it is you will be making large quantities!

Now in a small saucepan over medium heat, you will combine water, preferred sweetener such as allulose or monkfruit, stevia, pinch of salt and vanilla extract.

Now whisk up all of the ingredients well until there are no cocoa lumps left.

You may choose to only add in a little bit of water at first, whisk cocoa well, then add the rest of the water.

This will help to prevent a mess that may happen if all the water is in the saucepan.

Bring this to a boil at first until the sweetener has dissolved and you no longer see it in the water.

Keep watch over it though as it will boil over very easily.

Once I see it come to a boil, I stir it down and then turn the heat to low for it to simmer for 10 minutes.

Now to test that your syrup is ready to remove from the heat, you need to see if it will thickly cover the back of a spoon like this.

If it does, you know your syrup is ready.

if it doesn’t, then return it to the heat and simmer a couple of minutes longer.

Let it cool a little before adding to a glass jar that can withstand heat, like a canning jar.

Then let it completely cool overnight in the fridge before using it.

It will thicken up considerably and turn into the thickness you want in a chocolate syrup.

It will keep in a glass jar or glass bottle up to 3 months.

If you used allulose as your sweetener, then it will stay liquid.

If you chose to use monkfruit or erythritol, it may crystalize over time.

If this happens, gently re-warm the syrup until the crystals have dissolved, then return to the fridge to cool.

What are the ways I can use this rich sugar-free chocolate syrup?

Elevate Your Coffee Game:

• Turn your morning coffee into a luxurious experience by stirring in a shot of chocolate syrup. The best way to get it mixed into your coffee, like at coffee shops, is to swirl it in a thin stream around the inside of the mug before you add in your hot coffee.
• Indulge in a caffè mocha when you create a mocha syrup from this recipe! Just replace the 1 cup water asked for with a cup of coffee! This will delight any coffee lover as it inhances the coffee’s flavor even more.
• Consider putting your shots of espresso into the bottom of the mug with a tablespoon of the chocolate syrup. Mix up with a tiny whisk or hand mixer before adding any heavy cream or foam. It sure beats having to mix up powdered dark cocoa powder in your drink which never seems to dissolve!

Creative Cold Coffee Drinks

• Whip up a refreshing blended iced coffee or create a chocolatey frappuccino for a cool and satisfying treat when you throw it all in a blender! Don’t forget to top with some whipped cream and a drizzle of more chocolate syrup!

Tips and Tricks for your Homemade Dark Chocolate Syrup

• Transfer your homemade chocolate sauce to an airtight container, such as a mason jar, for extended shelf life.
• Store it at room temperature up to 1 month to maintain its smooth consistency if you used erythritol.
• If you use monkfruit it will possibly crystallize after a prolonged storage time.If this happens the next time you reach for it, just gently warm it over low heat until dissolved.
• Get adventurous by experimenting with different flavors such as creating a white chocolate mocha with homemade white chocolate sauce. Or you can infuse your chocolate sauce with peppermint for a delightful peppermint mocha.
• Choose good quality ingredients, such as high-quality cocoa powder, for a richer and more satisfying chocolate flavor. Ones that are Dutch Cocoa are lighter in flavor than raw cacao powder.
• If you are wanting to skip the sugar free sweeteners, you can use natural sweeteners like coconut sugar, maple syrup or brown sugar.
• Make a double batch and use it to make my Keto Brownie Pudding Delight!
