Frozen Hot Chocolate

As mentioned in the past, we are big fans of hot chocolate. But now that it is summer and a bit hot for hot hot chocolate, I start to make frozen hot chocolate.

It is a great treat, that really isn't that bad in the scheme of things, but definitely suppresses the chocolate urge.

Frozen Hot Chocolate
3 oz chocolates, chopped
2 teaspoons cocao
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups milk
3 cups ice

Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler.

Once melted stir until smooth, add the cocoa and sugar and continue mixing over heat until combined.

Remove from heat and add 1/2 cup of milk.


Let this cool completely before continuing. (If you are wanting this right away, place the mixture in a bowl set over a ice bath.)

Pour chocolate mixture over 3 cups ice and add the remaining cup of milk.


Blend until smooth.
