Recipe · Obliterator®
Frozen hot chocolate
Make a coffeehouse-quality chocolate frappe at home with the ice- crushing power of the Obliterator. For a stronger, more dark-chocolate flavor, use Dutch-style cocoa powder such as Hershey’s Special Dark.
Ingredients
- ½ cup sugar
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 1¼ cups whole milk, divided
- Whipped cream, for garnish (optional)
- Chocolate shavings, for garnish (optional)
You'll need
- Small saucepan
- Whisk
Method
- In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Slowly add ½ cup of the milk, whisking to combine.
- Cook, stirring, over medium heat until steaming and completely smooth, about 3 minutes. Set aside and let cool to room temperature, or set the pan in an ice bath for quicker cooling.
- To the blender jar, add the ice, remaining ¾ cup milk, and chocolate mixture.
- Cover with the lid and set to Auto Blend. Press BLEND.
- When blending finishes, portion the frozen hot chocolate into glasses and garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired.
