DIY Chocolate Liqueur

I ran out of chocolate liqueur and was looking to see if I could make it. i had a cocktail that called for it. I ran across this recipe from There is an Italian in my Kitchen and thought their recipe looked so good. Nothing like Creme de Cacao, but on a whole other level! My instincts were right and instead of mixing this in a cocktail I indulged in this thick, creamy, rich indulgent, chocolaty taste of heaven. It is truly phenomenal.

Here is the link to the recipe

Ingredients
2 cups 2 percent milk
7/8 cup unsweetened cocoa (good quality brand)
2/3 cup vodka
1 3/4 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups heavy or whipping cream

Instructions

In a large pot whisk together the sugar and cocoa, then add the milk and cream combine well.

When the mixture it is well combined place the pot over medium heat, stirring continuously, bring to a boil and slow boil for 5 minutes, whisking often.

Remove from heat and let cool. Once it is cool add the vodka and mix to combine completely. Pour into a bottle and refrigerate until really cold, about three hours, shake well before serving. Delicious served over ice too.

Nice. 2/3rd Cups = How many ML would that be? 🤔

Thank you

This looks really good!
I’ll forego trying the unopened bottle of Marmot Swiss chocolate liqueur my parents bought … in 1965. Shelf life and all that 😁
