Frozen Hot Chocolate

The HOT temperatures of August require
something COLD and YUMMY to drink...


Ingredients:
3 oz. best-quality chocolate
2 tsp. store-bought hot chocolate mix
1 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
1 1/2 cups milk
3 cups of ice
whipped cream
chocolate shavings

Equipment:
double boiler
blender

Instructions:
Chop the chocolate into fine pieces and melt it in a double boiler. Add the hot chocolate mix and sugar, stirring continuously until smooth and blended. Remove from heat and slowly stir in 1/2 cup of the milk. Continue stirring until it is smooth, then let it stand until the mix reaches room temperature.

Transfer the chocolate mixture to the blender, add the remaining milk and the ice cubes. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth [should resemble the consistency of a frozen daiquiri].

Pour the mixture into a serving class and top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
