Chocolate Liqueur

A good garnish for drinks and baked goods when used sparingly. I found this in the New Diabetic Cookbook.

• Ready In: 336 hrs 10 mins
• Serves: 32
• Yields: 1 oz

Ingredients

• 2  cups vodka
• 1 1⁄2 cups water
• 1 1⁄2 cups brown sugar substitute
• 4  ounces  chocolate flavoring
• 2  teaspoons vanilla
• 1⁄2 teaspoon  peppermint extract (optional)

Directions

1. Combine ingredients and put into a dark, sterilized glass bottle.
2. Sterilize the bottle since it will be sitting for at least two weeks.
3. Any type of chocolate flavoring would work. I find it in the spice section of the grocery store with the vanilla flavoring.
4. Let stand for 2 weeks.
5. Store as you would any liqueur.
