Michael's Chocolate Syrup

My grandson, Michael, is allergic to milk.  He LOVES chocolate soymilk, but likes to make his own.  This nifty little recipe is easy to make and keep on hand.  We store it in a "re-used" creamer bottle with a flip-top lid.

         


2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa

1 2/3 cups white sugar

1 1/4 cups water

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Bring first 3 ingredients to a boil in a small saucepan and boil for 1 minute while stirring. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.

Use to make chocolate soy milk {or regular milk}, or in place of chocolate syrup in any recipe. Michael chooses his own amount...  I'd guess about 1 Tablespoon in an 8 oz. glass.
