Ingredients
Scale
Frozen Hot Chocolate Ingredients
- 3½ cups ice
- 2 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 4 packets hot cocoa mix
- 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Toppings
- Whipped cream (for topping)
- Extra chocolate syrup (optional, for drizzle)
Instructions
- Chill Glasses: Place your serving glasses in the freezer to chill while you prepare the frozen hot chocolate for a refreshing serving experience.
- Blend Ingredients: In a high-powered blender, combine ice, milk, hot cocoa mix, chocolate syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring all the ice is crushed thoroughly.
- Serve: Remove the chilled glasses from the freezer and pour the blended frozen hot chocolate into them immediately to maintain the frosty texture.
- Add Toppings: Generously top the drink with whipped cream and drizzle additional chocolate syrup on top if desired for extra flavor and visual appeal.
- Enjoy: Serve with a straw and a spoon so you can sip and scoop this decadent frozen treat right away.
Notes
- For a smoother texture, use whole milk or coconut milk to add extra creaminess to the drink.
- If your blender struggles to crush ice, pulse in short bursts and stir between blending to ensure a consistent smoothness.
- Freezing the milk into ice cubes before blending can help prevent the drink from becoming watery.
- Any leftover Frozen Hot Chocolate can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 hours; re-blend with a splash of milk if it becomes too firm before serving again.
