In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Whisk continuously until the chocolate chips are fully melted and the mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the strong brewed coffee and continue to heat for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring everything is well combined. Do not let the mixture boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and ladle the hot mocha mixture into four heatproof mugs, filling each about three-quarters full.
Top each mug with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Add a dollop of whipped cream on top of the ice cream in each mug.
Drizzle chocolate syrup over the whipped cream, if desired, and sprinkle with chocolate shavings for extra garnish.
Serve the hot mocha floats immediately with spoons and enjoy the perfect blend of warm and cold indulgence.
