WEST AFRICAN HOT CHOCOLATE

West African Hot Chocolate image

Mmmm... frothy and tasty. With its smooth, strong full-bodied taste this drink is popular in Ghana and also with West African ex-pats in London. Its origins are North African. The rum is a local addition! It makes a great nightcap - a nice way of winding down after a hard day's work or a special meal. Recipe courtesy of www.africanoz.com.au

CHILL OUT FROZEN HOT CHOCOLATE

Chill out Frozen Hot Chocolate image

We serve this in our ice cream parlor and it's very popular. I know there's another frozen hot chocolate recipe here, but this one is different, as it's made with hot cocoa mix.

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

6 fluid ounces milk
1/2 cup hot cocoa mix (or 2 packets...we use Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate flavor)
1 1/2-2 cups crushed ice cubes
whipped cream (optional)
additional hot cocoa mix (optional)

Steps:

Pour milk into blender.
Add hot cocoa mix and ice.
Blend first at low speed and then high speed until ice is finely crushed and slushy.
Pour into tall glass and top with whipped cream and a dusting of hot cocoa mix, if desired.
Serve with a straw and enjoy!
P.S. This recipe was originally posted using small ice cubes. At our shop we have a commercial blender that has no problem getting through these. Since most people have regular blenders, I have changed it to crushed ice.
