Notice I contributed a lot of sugar to the party meal? Sorry. There will be some more healthy recipes next week!
Now whoa. This stuff is killer. I’m never making another chocolate syrup recipe. Ever. Such deep, buttery flavor. To. Die. For.
Adapted from a recipe my mom found on the internet
3 cups (21 oz) sugar
1 cup (8 oz) salted butter
1 1/2 cups (12 oz) evaporated whole milk
1/2 cup (1 1/2 oz) Aristocrat cocoa powder
2 t vanilla
Put the sugar, butter, evaporated milk, and cocoa in a large, heavy sauce pan (the mixture foams when boiling). Bring to a boil and boil for 7 minutes, stirring often. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. Serve warm or chilled on ice cream, cake, or even in your coffee.
Yield: 3 3/4 cups

You better not make it…you won’t stop eating it 🙂
You are so right. I wish I had a party or something coming up so I’d have an excuse to make it 🙂
BTW, I’m totally hooked on the cucumber/lemon water especially in this heat wave. I’m telling everyone about it.
Awesome! I need to make it again. We are having company tonight. Maybe I should slice up some cucumbers and set them to soaking…
