Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup milk (whole milk works best for creaminess)
- 1 packet hot cocoa mix (about 1 ounce)
- 1 cup 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.
- Pour the creamy frozen hot chocolate into a tall glass.
- Top generously with whipped cream and sprinkle with chocolate curls, if you are using them. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For an extra decadent, copycat-style frozen hot chocolate, add 1 tablespoon of chocolate fudge sauce to the blender with the other ingredients.
- If you want a thicker frozen chocolate shake, reduce the amount of milk slightly or add one or two more ice cubes.
- You can use any type of milk, but whole milk or 2% milk yields the creamiest texture.
