Sugar-free Chocolate Syrup



Ingredients:
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2/3 cup xylitol
1/8 tsp sea salt
1/2 cup water
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Mix cocoa, xylitol, and salt into a medium sized pot.  Slowly mix in the water to make a smooth paste.  Add the vanilla extract then turn to medium heat.  Bring mixture to a boil stirring constantly.  Once boiling, reduce to medium heat and continue to boil for 2 minutes.  Be careful!  The chocolate mixture will begin to expand and try to bubble over.  After 2 minutes, turn off heat and let the syrup cool.  Store in a well sealed container like a jam jar.  I used an old glass jar to save time and money.  You can drizzle this over your Healthy Brownies, coffee, frozen yogurt, or make yourself a guilt-free glass of chocolate almond milk.  Enjoy!

*Chocolate Syrup recipe was created by my friend Kaleigh Tully whose life has been greatly impacted by the sugar-free magic of xylitol!
