Make this incredibly simple and creamy frozen hot chocolate in under five minutes. It is the perfect cold, refreshing chocolate drink for summer days or a quick dessert treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup milk (any kind works)
  • 1/2 cup hot chocolate mix (powdered)
  • 1 1/2 cups ice cubes
  • Whipped cream, for topping (optional)
  • Chocolate curls or syrup, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Gather your three main ingredients: milk, hot chocolate mix, and ice.
  2. Place the milk, hot chocolate mix, and ice cubes into your blender.
  3. Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and thick, resembling a milkshake. This usually takes about 30 to 60 seconds.
  4. Taste the mixture. If you prefer it sweeter or more chocolatey, add a little more mix and blend again briefly.
  5. Pour the creamy frozen hot chocolate immediately into tall glasses.
  6. Top generously with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate curls or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for the best frozen chocolate drink experience.

Notes

  • For an extra decadent, copycat frozen hot chocolate texture, substitute 1/4 cup of the milk with chocolate fudge sauce.
  • If you want a thicker frozen chocolate shake, reduce the milk slightly or add a few more ice cubes.
  • This recipe is kid friendly and perfect for quick summer sips or movie nights.
