Inspired by the old standard boiled chocolate cookie recipe, I wanted to make chocolate that had no corn syrup, no refined sugar, etc... like... healthy chocolate syrup...or at least chocolate that I didn't feel bad giving to the kids.
Chocolate syrup- Colombian style
I used equal portions of butter, cocoa, sugar, and three parts of milk--you can decide how much syrup you want, which will be slightly more than how much milk you used....
Melt the butter, sift in the cocoa so it is a smooth mixture, add the sugar and milk. Bring it to a boil while stirring it constantly, and let it boil for about a minute.
Because I'm not a fan of dishes for no reason, I poured out the syrup into one of my saved glass jam jars, and left enough in the pan for three hot chocolates, then I added milk to heat, which cleaned up the pot nicely. Three tiny (aka fun!) mugs of hot chocolate. Done. Chocolate mustachios all around!
Cheers and chao!
