FROZEN HOT CHOCOLATE
Steps:
- Break the bittersweet chocolate into pieces and place it in a medium bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring occasionally, until just melted. Off the heat, whisk in the cocoa powder, sugar, and half-and-half and set aside.
- Place 3/4 cup of the milk, 2 tablespoons of the coffee liqueur, 1/2 teaspoon of the vanilla, and half of the chocolate mixture in a blender. Add 2 cups of the ice and blend for several minutes, until the mixture is thick but not icy, like a frozen daiquiri. (You can add a little more milk or ice if it's too thick or too thin.) Pour into two (10-ounce) ice cream soda glasses and top each with a generous dollop of whipped cream and some grated chocolate. Repeat for the second two glasses. Serve ice cold with straws and long-handled spoons.
- Place the cream, sugar, and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on high speed until the cream forms very soft peaks (don't overbeat or the cream will be too firm).

- Place 1 cup chocolate sauce, 4 cups ice, and 1 cup milk in a blender. Cover and blend until smooth; pour into 2 individual glasses. Refrigerate the remaining sauce.

CHILL OUT FROZEN HOT CHOCOLATE
We serve this in our ice cream parlor and it's very popular. I know there's another frozen hot chocolate recipe here, but this one is different, as it's made with hot cocoa mix.

Steps:
- Pour milk into blender.
- Add hot cocoa mix and ice.
- Blend first at low speed and then high speed until ice is finely crushed and slushy.
- Pour into tall glass and top with whipped cream and a dusting of hot cocoa mix, if desired.
- Serve with a straw and enjoy!
- P.S. This recipe was originally posted using small ice cubes. At our shop we have a commercial blender that has no problem getting through these. Since most people have regular blenders, I have changed it to crushed ice.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Chocolate: Use high-quality chocolate, such as semisweet or bittersweet, to ensure a rich and flavorful frozen hot chocolate.
- Use Fresh Milk: Fresh milk will give your frozen hot chocolate a creamy and smooth texture.
- Don't Overmix: Overmixing the frozen hot chocolate will result in a icy texture. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
- Freeze in Individual Portions: Freeze the frozen hot chocolate in individual portions so you can enjoy it whenever you like.
- Garnish with Whipped Cream and Chocolate Shavings: For a special touch, garnish your frozen hot chocolate with whipped cream and chocolate shavings before serving.

Frozen hot chocolate is a delicious and refreshing treat that can be enjoyed all year round. With its creamy texture, rich chocolate flavor, and optional toppings, it's the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth.
