2-Ingredient Chocolate Syrup

2-Ingredient Chocolate Syrup: A Healthier Dessert Alternative with Hustle + Halcyon

Weeeeenie babies! What is UP?!

I’m currently hanging out Houston, visiting some of my best friends from college & getting into some Super Bowl-related shenanigans.

Tag along on Instagram & Snapchat to do Super Bowl weekend with me! It’ll be… interesting.

For today’s post, I have another almost-too-obvious recipe idea for y’all ( & this one is PERFECT for Valentine’s Day themed anything! ).

As a self-diagnosed dessert ADDICT, I have a real problem with sweets. I HAVE to end both lunch & dinner with something sweet. If I skip dessert, the meal just feels unfinished.

I do my best to provide my body with the right nutrients that it needs to function, & I try to stay away from loads of sugar, saturated/trans fats, processed foods, artificial ingredients, etc. The usual.

I’d LOVE to dig into a personal chocolate cheesecake on a daily basis, but clearly that’s not realistic. So, I’ve settled for various SIMPLE desserts that are made with “healthy”-ish ingredients.

Enter: easy, 2-ingredient chocolate syrup!

I pair this 2-ingredient chocolate syrup with strawberries, bananas, rice puffs, gluten-free bread, etc. when I’m craving something sweet after dinner.

Pro Tip: always eat this while sipping some Perrier, because it fills you up more & it feels extra fancy.

I’ve always been a fan of chocolate dipped anything. If you’ve tried melting chocolate in the microwave at home, you know it comes out a little thick, clumpy, & sticks to the side of the bowl.

For my chocolate syrup, I heat dark chocolate with some coconut oil to thin it out & pack it with extra healthy fats.

Optional addition: some cinnamon for a lil extra kick.

Ingredients

2 Portions of Hershey’s Dark Chocolate
1/2 – 1 Tsp of Coconut Oil

How To

I buy the BIG ASS dark chocolate bar in the candy aisle at the grocery story, so use more than two little bars if your chocolate bar is smaller.

I start with my two bars in a mug, & heat them in the microwave in 30 second increments. After each 30 seconds, I remove the mug from the microwave & stir the chocolate to ensure I don’t burn it.

After about 1 to 1 & 1/2 minutes, I mix the coconut oil in with the chocolate, & continue to heat until the chocolate can be mixed into a syrup consistency.

And, VOILA, you have your dark chocolatey goodness! I usually slice the strawberries into quarters, & put them in the chocolate bowl, mixing them around to coat them all.


I eat this most nights for dessert, because it’s my favorite lately.

This is giving me major Valentine’s Day vibes, so my timing with this recipe is flawless, if I do say so myself.

Welp, that’s it for today, gals! Hope y’all love this lil treat as much as I do. xx
