Instructions

Melt the chocolate chips in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
Stir in the hot cocoa mix and sugar until fully combined.
Whisk in 1/2 cup of milk gradually until the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
Pour the cooled chocolate mixture into a blender.
Add the remaining 1 cup of milk and 3 cups of ice to the blender. Blend until frothy and well mixed.
Pour into glasses and top with whipped cream.
Garnish with chocolate shavings or sprinkles, if desired.
Serve immediately.

Notes

Use dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor.

Substitute with plant-based milk for a dairy-free version.

Add peppermint extract for a minty twist.

Include a spoonful of peanut butter for extra richness.

Blend in a frozen banana for a smoothie-style texture.

Best served fresh; store leftovers in freezer for up to 1 day and re-blend before serving.
