FROZEN HOT CHOCOLATE

• 1 cup warmed milk (2% or higher)
• 2 hot chocolate packets
• 1/2 cup cold milk (2% or higher)
• 1/2 cup half & half cream
• 1/3 cup chocolate syrup
• 4 cups chopped ice

1. Mix the two hot chocolate packets into the warmed milk.*
2. Pour the chocolate milk, white milk, half & half, chocolate syrup and chopped ice into a blender.
3. Blend on high speed for 20-30 seconds, or until the ice is completely blended and smooth.
4. Pour into four glasses.
5. Top with whipped cream and chocolate syrup.
6. Serve immediately.
   
   *I often do this step ahead of time, then place the chocolate milk into the refrigerator to cool. This helps keep the frozen hot chocolate as cold as possible. If you do this step, stir the chocolate milk before you add it to the blender because some chocolate will settle at the bottom of the cup.
   
   Yield: 4 1-cup servings
