••••FROZEN HOT CHOCOLATE ๐ซ!!
1½ tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
powder, such as Pernigotti
1½ tablespoons sugar
½ cup half-and-half
1½ cups whole milk
4 tablespoons coffee liqueur, such as Kahlรบa, or brewed espresso
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 cups ice
Sweetened Whipped Cream, for serving (see recipe)
Grated bittersweet chocolate, for garnish
Straws, for serving
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 ¾ cup of the milk, 2 tablespoons of the coffee liqueur, ½ 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.
