Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate chips (or finely chopped dark chocolate)
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the pure maple syrup and unsweetened cocoa powder.
Whisk the mixture over medium heat until the cocoa powder is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the dark chocolate chips and stir constantly until they are melted and incorporated into the syrup.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the unsalted butter until melted and combined.
Remove the saucepan from heat, then stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors.
Let the syrup cool slightly before serving. It will thicken as it cools.
Serve warm over pancakes, waffles, or desserts. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Reheat gently before using.
