In a medium saucepan, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar substitute, and salt until combined.
Slowly add the water to the saucepan, whisking constantly to form a smooth and lump-free mixture.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring frequently.
Reduce the heat to low and let the syrup simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly. The syrup will continue to thicken as it cools.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature before transferring it to an airtight container or jar.
Store the chocolate syrup in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Shake or stir before using, as natural separation may occur.
