A Favorite Treat

No, it’s not sugar free, but it’s preservative free (and “chemical free” if you use all organic, non-GMO, etc.)   🙂

(And also it’s fat free, like is says at the bottom of the recipe.)

My favorite recipe for chocolate syrup:

If you use regular salt (rather than Kosher), use far less salt, like maybe just a few dashes.

It’s good on oatmeal, in warm milk for hot cocoa, and just straight on a spoon.  (Shh, don’t tell anyone my spoonful-of-syrup-sneaky-snack.)

About Christa Upton

I am a wife and mother of three children ages 11, 14, and 18. I used to be a stay-at-home mom (teaching piano & dance, volunteering, etc). From 2007 to 2010, I suffered accidental Toxic Injury (also called Multiple Chemical Sensitivity or MCS). MCS has had major impact on our family, but the forced time in bed has given me time to write. So far, I have published 4 children's books (2 in e-book format on Kindle, one in Print-on-Demand at CreateSpace, and one printed by a local printer). Sometimes I miss my old life, but I love writing for children!
