Frozen Hot Chocolate

Ingredients:

1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips

2 (1 ounce) packets of hot chocolate mix (I used Swiss Miss, but you can use your favorite)

4 1/2 cups of milk divided - Take 3 cups of the milk and pour into ice cube trays and freeze overnight. The other 1 1/2 cups will be used when blending up the frozen hot chocolate.

Whipped cream or other toppings

Directions:

1. In a small sauce pan melt the chocolate chips over low heat, stirring until the chips are melted. 
Slowly stir in the 1 1/2 cups of milk until well combined.

2. In a blender add the chocolate milk mixture, the packets of hot chocolate, and half of the frozen milk cubes. Blend on ice crush or high until the cubes are blended. Add the remaining frozen milk cubes and blend until smooth. The consistency should be that of a thick milk shake.

3. Pour into glasses and top with whipped cream or other favorite toppings.
