  • 3 packets Hot cocoa mix
  • 3 cups Ice
  • to taste Whipped cream optional
  • to taste Chocolate curls optional

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Blender

Method
 

  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients: milk, hot cocoa mix, and ice. This will make the blending process smoother and quicker.
  2. In your blender, combine the milk, hot cocoa mix, and ice. Make sure to add the right amount of each ingredient to achieve that delightful balance of creamy and icy.
  3. Blend the mixture until it’s mostly smooth. You want the ice to be crushed but still leave a little texture. Watch as your rich chocolate mixture transforms into a creamy delight!
  4. Once blended, taste the mixture. If you want it sweeter, feel free to add a bit of sugar or even a drizzle of chocolate syrup. Blend again briefly to mix.
  5. Pour the Frozen Hot Chocolate into two glasses. The color should be a rich chocolate brown, and if you’ve blended it well, there should be a nice frothy layer on top.
  6. Now for the fun part! Top each glass with a generous amount of whipped cream. Let it swirl and pile high—this is the signature look!
  7. Finally, sprinkle some chocolate curls on top for that extra flair. They’ll melt slightly into the cream, adding a delightful chocolatey touch.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Frozen Hot Chocolate. Don’t forget to take a moment to admire your creation before diving in!

Notes

How Much Cocoa Should I Use? One packet of hot cocoa mix contains about 2½ tablespoons of cocoa mix, so for this recipe, you’ll need about 7½ tablespoons in total.
