Ingredients
- 4 oz Semi-sweet chocolate or chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 3 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 cups Whole milk
- 3 cups Ice cubes
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp Chocolate shavings or sprinkles
Directions
Step 1
Begin by making the hot chocolate base. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the semi-sweet chocolate with 0.5 cups of milk, stirring constantly until smooth and well combined.
Step 2
Once the chocolate has melted, whisk in the granulated sugar and cocoa powder until dissolved. Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Step 3
In a blender, combine the cooled chocolate mixture, remaining 1 cup of milk, and 3 cups of ice cubes. Blend on high speed until smooth and frothy. The mixture should resemble a thick milkshake.
Step 4
To make the whipped cream, pour the heavy whipping cream into a large mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer or whisk, whip the cream until soft peaks form.
Step 5
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream, then continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, as this can turn the cream grainy.
Step 6
Pour the frozen hot chocolate into serving glasses. Generously dollop each with the freshly whipped cream.
Step 7
Garnish with chocolate shavings or sprinkles for an extra special touch.
Step 8
Serve immediately with a straw and a spoon and enjoy this decadent, icy chocolate treat!
