I participated in Mom Blog Tour Winter Fancy Food Show (#MomBlogTourFF) on behalf of Wendy’s Bloggers. I received Two Rivers Coffee products to facilitate my review, but my opinions and the recipe are my own. Diet, move over! It’s time for a little cheat. I’m usually the queen of cheating on a diet, but since this diet is important not only for myself but for the little human being inside of me, I’ve been pretty good. But, I’m only human, and I was craving something epically tasty, so this Frozen Hot Chocolate was born. Because the only thing better than a cup of hot chocolate on a chilly evening, is a bowl of frozen hot chocolate on a hot summer day!

But is it a dessert? Or is it a drink? If you’ve ever been to Serendipity in NYC and ordered their “Frrrozen” Hot Chocolate (yep, that’s how they write it on the menu), chances are you’ve asked yourself that same question and probably suffered through that life changing indecision between grabbing a spoon or going for the straw. Well, at the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter. I often go for the straw and, if there’s any frozen bits that are hard to suck, I use the spoon. After all, no frozen hot chocolate shall be left behind!

The magic of this recipe is that you get to adapt it using whatever type of chocolate and hot cocoa mix you love. I’ve recently discovered Two Rivers Coffee and their many hot chocolate flavors, like Tootsie Roll, Junior Mints and Sugar Babies. Classic American childhood flavors that will awaken the child inside you! You can purchase them in k-cup form or instant packets (for all the old fashioned peeps out there). And then you can make several different flavors of creamy, dreamy frozen hot chocolate during the summer! I used Tootsie Roll this time, but I’m eyeing Junior Mints for the next time I need a little cheat. Oh, I can’t wait!
