Tasty Tuesday



             I'm back with another cool treat to help pass your summer cravings for something frozen and oh so good!  I posted this last winter, but this is truely a summer time treat and a great way to use up your hot chocolate mix! Frozen hot chocolate is easy, and we love easy, don't we and you'll love this yummy and rich dessert.


Frozen Hot Chocolate





3 oz. good chocolate
2 Tbsp. store bought hot cocoa mix or homemade
1 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
1 1/2 c. milk
3 c. ice
whipped cream
Chop chocolate into small pieces and melt in a small saucepan, stirring till melted. Add the hot chocolate mix and sugar, stirring well till blended. Remove from heat and slowly add 1/2 c. of the milk and stir well again. Cool to room temp. In a blender place remaining 1 c. milk, the chocolate mix and ice. Blend on high till smooth and resembles a frozen drink. Pour into a tall glass or big cup and top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings or sprinkles. Enjoy!


       I hope your enjoying my out of the normal recipes but after all these years of cooking and baking, I love to try new things, and I must say, the bacon post above has got to be one of the top three oddest for me recipes, but I also have to confess, that I have made pig candy via Paula Deen for my bacon loving friend, and it was a huge hit. So, I guess don't judge the cover till you've read the book applies to food too?

  6. Oh my! I have heard mention of frozen hot chocolate several times recently, I think I was better of ignorant, lol. This is not what my new diet is calling for, but my tummy is another matter altogether.

  7. Hey Sue, this treat sure looks yummy. I will try it.
    I made the Pink Lemonade Pie and it was good only it wouldn't set up. It got firm but.....Well Kylee said, "Gramma I couldn't cut this so I guess I'll just have to take a sppon and eat it out of the pan." Should it set up better than firm? MB
