Frozen Hot Chocolate is the perfect summertime treat. Icy double chocolate goodness topped with whipped cream and sprinkles!
Nothing beats a cold, creamy ice cream treat on a hot summer day. This Frosted Strawberry Lemonade is perfection and this Copy Cat Chick Fil A Frosted Lemonade is better than the real thing. This Orange Freeze is one of my favorite summer treats.
I first discovered frozen hot chocolate in New York City at the famous Serendipity Restaurant. I think I planned our whole New York trip around visiting that restaurant to try the frozen hot chocolate. It totally lived up to it’s hype!
There is no trip to NYC necessary though in order to enjoy this delicious icy chocolate treat. You can make it at home with just five ingredients and about five minutes! The only other thing you need is a blender.
Frozen Hot Chocolate Ingredients
- Chocolate – semi sweet or milk chocolate
- Milk
- Hot Cocoa Mix
- Sugar
- Ice
How to Make Frozen Hot Chocolate
- Start by melting the chocolate chips in the microwave and add in the sugar, cocoa mix and part of the milk.
- After it cools add in the rest of the milk and put it into your blender along with the ice. Pulse a few times and you have magic – frozen hot chocolate!
How easy is that! Of course hot chocolate is always better when topped with some whipped cream and sprinkles!
It is the perfect treat for a 90 degree day or any day really! No need for a trip to NYC when you’ve got this great recipe for making it right at home!

Looks and sounds delicious. For hot chocolate, I like the traditional marshmallows. But whipped cream is always a welcome addition.
