  • 3 ounce UNSWEETENED CHOCOLATE
  • 3 cup WATER
  • 1/2 teaspoon SALT
  • 15 ounce CAN OF EVAPORATED MILK
Directions

  3. 3

Note

Storage: Allow the syrup to cool completely before sealing the container. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. The syrup will thicken when cold; simply warm it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or on the stovetop over low heat before serving.

Substitutions: If you do not have a double boiler, you can melt the butter and chocolate in a saucepan over very low heat, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Variations: For a richer flavor, substitute the unsweetened chocolate with semi-sweet chocolate chips. Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra aroma.

Tip: If the syrup separates, whisk vigorously while warming it gently to re-emulsify.
