Frozen Hot Chocolate
Frozen Hot Chocolate drink is the perfect refreshing drink for when you are craving chocolate. I love to sip it as a dessert or mid-afternoon pick me up. It is made with homemade chocolate milk powder and topped with homemade whipped topping and chocolate syrup.
Ingredients
Chocolate: I used milk chocolate chips in this recipe.
Hot Cocoa Mix: You can use storebought cocoa mix, or make your own homemade chocolate milk powder to use!
Milk: Warm up the milk to about 110°F. The warm milk will help the chocolate not to seize.
Toppings: Make the drink even sweeter and more delicious by added whipped topping and chocolate syrup on top!
Why is it Called Frozen Hot Chocolate?
How can something be hot and frozen at the same time? Well, this drink’s name is definitely an oxymoron. However, It makes sense when you break down the contents of the drink. You will blend ice with the hot cocoa mix, and that’s where we got the name.
Can I use a Different Chocolate Chip?
Sure! I prefer milk chocolate chocolate chips for this recipe. You can definitely use semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips depending on your taste preference!

Made it, it’s delish!!!! My grands asked for more, I will soon,
Delightful late night treat! Can’t wait to try again!
It’ll be interesting to try this. The recipe on the back of the hot chocolate mix I use has ice cream in it instead of the milk and sugar, so it will be fun (and tasty) to compare the two.
