Ok, I know it's an oxymoron to say 'frozen' and then 'hot' but this tastes like hot chocolate, except it's icey like a milkshake. I make this, and variables of this shake constantly for my family. This is a delicious, lower fat way to cool off on a hot day, or really wake your mouth up in the morning! Also a wonderful alternative to soda, Kool-aid, etc for the kids!

SERVES 2 , 32 oz. (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 cups milk
1/8 cup cocoa powder (use a little more or less, depending on your taste) or 1/4-1/2 cup powdered chocolate milk mix (Nestles Quick, Ovaltine, etc)
1/2 cup sugar (or to taste)
1/8 cup non-dairy powdered coffee creamer
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 full size ice cubes (from ice cube tray, if using small ice cubes, double)

Directions

1
Place all ingredients in blender and blend on high until there are no chunks of ice left. ** but make sure you're using ONE OR THE OTHER of either cocoa powder OR chocolate milk mix, NOT BOTH.
2
(My blender makes a grumbling sound and then the sound changes when there are no more ice chunks.)** You can change this recipe so many ways to create your own-- add an 1/8 tsp of peppermint extract for a chocolate mint milkshake.
3
Add some coffee or 1/2 teaspoon instant espresso powder to make a "Mocha" flavor.
4
Omit the chocolate and powdered coffee creamer altogether to make vanilla.
5
With a vanilla base, add any kind of berries-- or replace the milk with 1-1/2 cups orange juice & 1/2 cup water to make the best orange julius just like you get in the mall!
6
(I don't advise using milk and orange juice together as the acid in the juice will curdle the milk in your stomach!) Play with the amount of sugar, cocoa, etc to create the best taste for you and your family.

This was great! I didn't have the creamer so I used 1 teaspoon of Dream Whip powdered mix. It worked really good and either the creamer/Dream Whip mix is what my non-ice cream shakes have been missing. It adds an additional creaminess!

I'm so glad to have found this recipe in June as I'm sure we'll be drinking many of these this summer. I tried adding a banana and it tasted great. I froze my leftovers and when I wanted more I just softened for about 30 seconds in the microwave. The result was a slushier and still delicious treat. Thanks!

What a LOVELY drink this makes! I used Hintz Dutch Processed Cocoa powder today to make this. Next time, I'll try using Ovaltine as I am an Ovaltine lover I increased this recipe by three times and made it to give away as gifts today to my cook(Its his b'day and today is NO WAR day in my kitchen, lol) and his friends'. They love it. Oh and I had a glass too(I skipped lunch today, just so I could relish every drop of this) Wonderful taste - It's got the right amount of creaminess and beautiful texture and colour to boot! Serve this cold and you can make even a nasty cop smile for joy! Infact, it wouldn't be wrong if I said it tastes like it came from the hands of a professional! Thanks for sharing!
