    Homemade Chocolate Syrup Recipe for Toddlers and Kids | HomemadeChocolate Sauce

    Homemade Chocolate Syrup Recipe for Toddlers and Kids 6

    Chocolate syrup or anything chocolate-based is most of the kid's favorite. But the store-bought syrup contains preservatives & some horrible ingredients. Hence I have tried to make the chocolate syrup at home; the result is vibrant, delicious, sure better than the store-bought. It just took only 15 minutes to make at home with readily available ingredients.

    You could consume a few teaspoons of this homemade chocolate syrup in the below ways:
    • Can be added as desserts toppings for ice creams, cakes, etc
    • Use as a spread for dosas, pancakes, Chapati/roti, or bread.
    • Combine 1 to 2 tsp of it with 1 cup of warm milk to prepare chocolate milk.
    • Add it to milkshakes & smoothies for a chocolate flavor.

    The homemade chocolate syrup tastes yummy, but just a word of caution here.  I would suggest to include this chocolate syrup occasionally as a special treat and not regularly. As it might make your toddler/kid to develop a sweet tooth.

      Notes :

      • I have replaced sugar with Palm Jaggery to make it healthier, but you could use any sweetener of your choice.
      • Adding more water makes the syrup watery.
      • Keep the flame low to medium and stir it occasionally to avoid burning at the bottom.
      • This chocolate syrup becomes a little thick after cooling down, so switch it off the flame accordingly. Don't over boil.
      • It stays well for 2 to 3 months if appropriately handled and refrigerated.
      • Always check with your pediatrician before introducing any new food.
