Chill out Frozen Hot Chocolate

Karen=^..^='s Note:

We serve this in our ice cream parlor and it's very popular. I know there's another frozen hot chocolate recipe here, but this one is different, as it's made with hot cocoa mix.

• Total Time: 5 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 0 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 1

• 6 ounces milk
• 1/2 cup hot cocoa mix (or 2 packets...we use Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate flavor)
• 1 1/2-2 cups crushed ice cubes
• whipped cream (optional)
• additional hot cocoa mix (optional)

Directions:

1. Pour milk into blender.
2. Add hot cocoa mix and ice.
3. Blend first at low speed and then high speed until ice is finely crushed and slushy.
4. Pour into tall glass and top with whipped cream and a dusting of hot cocoa mix, if desired.
5. Serve with a straw and enjoy!
6. P.S. This recipe was originally posted using small ice cubes. At our shop we have a commercial blender that has no problem getting through these. Since most people have regular blenders, I have changed it to crushed ice.

I just saw this recipe and decided to make it! Im so pleased with it. I did make some changes, i used 3oz of milk, and a small scoop of vanilla ice scream. Not having the regular swiss miss hot chocolate, i used the one with marshmellows. But all in all still came out very tasty!

After seeing some frozen hot chocolate on pinterest, I knew I had to make it. Winter isn't the same without hot cocoa, and I always look forward to it every year, but now I can have hot cocoa in frozen form in the middle of summer! This recipe is way better and easier than the recipe on pinterest, which required melting chocolate chips with butter before allowing it to cool---too many steps for me. I made this with swiss miss dark chocolate cocoa, and it turned out absolutely delicious!!! Thank you so much for posting this!!!

Taste is great. It was like a thinned out Wendy's Chocolate Frosty.
