How to get Emmet to autocomplete self-closing tags with ' / ' in visual studio code

So Emmet's autocomplete for HTML tags is very useful but when I want to write a self closing tag like <br/> it autocomplete it to <br>. I understand that this isn't a big issue at all because it is completely supported, but I like being able to see directly that the tag is closed.

Is there a way to change this behavior in visual studio code?

Doing some more research I managed to find this setting to add into setting.json

"emmet.syntaxProfiles": {
    "html": {
        "self_closing_tag" : true
    }
}

Now, writing br will autocomplete to <br/>
