Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (85g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp (15g) high-quality unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1.5 tbsp (20g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk (for melting)
  • 1 cup (240ml) cold whole milk
  • 3 cups (450g) ice cubes
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp chocolate shavings

Instructions:

  1. Melt the base. In a small heavy bottomed saucepan over low heat, combine 85g chocolate chips, 15g cocoa powder, 20g sugar, and 120ml milk. Whisk constantly until the chocolate is completely melted and glossy. Note: Whisking prevents the milk from skinning and the chocolate from sticking.
  2. Cool the mixture. Remove the pan from the heat and let the chocolate base sit for 5 minutes until it reaches room temperature. Note: This prevents the ice from melting instantly in the blender.
  3. Prepare the blender. Pour the cooled chocolate base into your blender jar. Add the remaining 240ml of cold milk and the 450g of ice cubes.
  4. Start slow. Turn the blender on its lowest setting for 10 seconds until the large ice chunks are broken. Note: Starting slow prevents the motor from seizing and ensures an even crush.
  5. Ramp up speed. Gradually increase to the highest speed and blend for 30 to 45 seconds until the mixture looks like thick mousse.
  6. Check consistency. Stop the blender and stir with a long spoon to ensure no large ice shards remain.
  7. Whip the cream. In a separate bowl, whisk 120ml heavy cream until stiff, snowy peaks form.
  8. Pour and serve. Divide the chocolate mixture between two chilled glasses.
  9. Garnish and finish. Top each glass with a generous dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with 1 tsp of chocolate shavings.
  10. Serve immediately. Enjoy while the texture is at its peak of frostiness. > Chef's Tip: Freeze your glasses for 10 minutes before serving. This prevents the drink from melting at the edges as you pour it in, keeping that frozen integrity much longer.
