When we think of cocoa, we automatically think about a steaming cup of hot chocolate enjoyed while sitting near a crackling fire on a cold winter night. But not anymore. You can transform your hot chocolate mix into a refreshing and delicious cold cocoa smoothie that will cool you down on a hot summer day.
Instructions
1. Place 10 large ice cubes in your blender and pour the milk on top. Add one packet or several tablespoons of hot chocolate mix to taste and a scoop of your favorite ice cream. Blend until smooth.
2. Taste your cold cocoa to make sure it is the flavor and consistency you like. Add more ice, ice cream or cocoa to make it perfect.
3. Crush 3 or 4 chocolate and cream sandwich cookies and add the crumbles to the blender. Pulse your blender slowly so that the cookies blend into your drink but remain in small pieces.
4. Pour your cold cocoa smoothie into a large glass and garnish with a bit of whipped cream. Add a another crushed cookie to the top or sprinkle with chocolate chips. Serve and enjoy.
