By jrichmond4

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups sugar
• 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 2 tsp. vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and cocoa powder and whisk briefly to break up any clumps. Stir in the water and salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently. Once the mixture reaches a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and let simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in the vanilla. Store in the refrigerator.
