Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup milk (whole milk works best for creaminess)
- 1/2 cup hot cocoa mix (use your favorite brand)
- 1 1/2 cups ice cubes
- Whipped cream and chocolate curls for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Place the milk, hot cocoa mix, and ice cubes into your blender.
- Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and thick. This should take about 30 to 60 seconds.
- Taste the mixture. If you want it sweeter or more chocolatey, add a small amount more cocoa mix and blend again briefly.
- Pour the creamy frozen hot chocolate into tall glasses.
- Top generously with whipped cream and sprinkle with chocolate curls or shavings for the ultimate treat. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For an extra rich, copycat-style frozen chocolate drink, substitute 1/4 cup of the milk with chocolate syrup or hot fudge sauce before blending.
- If you want a thicker frozen chocolate shake, reduce the amount of milk slightly or add a few more ice cubes.
- This recipe is kid-friendly and makes a fantastic summer sip or movie night dessert.
