Frozen Unicorn Hot Chocolate Recipes

UNICORN HOT CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• Whip up the double cream (if using) until it just holds its shape - it should be the consistency of crème fraîche. Then, if you like, stain the inside of a disposable piping bag with different gel food colourings using a skewer to drag a tiny streak of colour from the bottom of the bag to the top.
• To make the hot chocolate pour the milk into a small pan and heat until simmering, stirring to stop it scorching. Take the pan off the heat and add the white chocolate then stir until the chocolate has fully melted. Add food colouring to turn the mixture pastel pink then pour into 2 mugs or heatproof glasses.
• To decorate fill the prepared piping bag with the whipped cream then snip off the end to create a wide tip. Pipe mounds of the cream on top of the hot chocolate and scatter over sprinkles and coloured sweets if you like.

ULTIMATE FROZEN HOT CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• In microwavable container, melt butter.
• Combine cocoa and sugar with the butter to make a paste.
• Add semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips and 2/3 cup of the heavy cream to the cocoa/sugar/butter mixture.
• Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute, stir, and microwave again for intervals of 20 seconds until chocolate chips are fully melted and fully incorporated. Be careful not to burn chocolate.
• Add remaining heavy cream to chocolate mixture and stir.
• Cool mixture to room temperature.
• Pour mixture and ice into blender and blend until smooth. (I actually do this in two batches to make it easier to blend and due to the size of my blender.).
• Add milk if necessary to help blend if chocolate ice mixture is too thick to blend in blender.
• Enjoy!
