Chocolate Milk Recipe

Step 1

Combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup water, 1 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk constantly until the sugar has dissolved and the syrup is smooth, 2 to 4 minutes. The syrup will coat the back of the spoon and will thicken as it cools.

Step 2

Transfer the syrup into a jar with a lid and let cool, uncovered.

Step 3

To make a glass of chocolate milk combine 1 1/2 cups of cold milk with 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup and stir until it is combined. Enjoy!
