Frozen Hot Chocolate Recipe
Description
This recipe combines milk, cocoa mix, and ice in a blender until mostly smooth, resulting in a thick, cold chocolate drink that resembles hot chocolate in flavor but is served frozen. The use of multiple packets of hot cocoa mix provides full, rich chocolate taste. Whipped cream and chocolate curls added on top lend an extra layer of sweetness and decoration.
The texture is creamy and chilled, with the ice blending into the milk and cocoa powder to create a slushy consistency. The drink refreshes despite its rich chocolate flavor, making it suitable for times when a cold dessert drink is preferred over a warm beverage.
An adjustment note clarifies that if you use cocoa powder from a canister instead of packets, you can substitute one packet with approximately 2½ tablespoons of the cocoa mix, helping maintain correct flavor balance across varied products.
Ingredients
- 2 cups milk
- 3 (1.38-ounce) packets hot cocoa mix
- 3 cups ice
- Whipped Cream optional
- Chocolate curls optional
Instructions
- Combine milk, hot cocoa mix, and ice in a blender. Blend until mostly smooth.
- Pour into two glasses and top with whipped cream and chocolate curls.
Notes
- If using hot cocoa mix from a canister instead of packets, use about 7½ tablespoons of cocoa mix to replace the three packets called for in the recipe.
