Frozen Hot Chocolate

Directions

In a small saucepan, whisk together sugar and cocoa powder.

Set aside 2 tablespoons of the 2 ¾ cups milk.

Whisk in enough of the remaining 2 ¾ cups milk to make a paste.

Whisk in the remainder of the 2 ¾ cups milk.

Heat and stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved.

Pour chocolate mixture into clean ice cube trays. Cover and freeze for 6 hours to overnight.

Run hot water on bottom of ice cube trays to help release chocolate cubes.

Place chocolate cubes in a large food processor.

Add the reserved 2 tablespoons milk.

Cover and process until mixture is smooth and lightened in color.

To serve, spoon ½ cup of the chocolate mixture into each of eight 6-ounce glasses.

Using the 1 cup milk, spoon 2 tablespoons to ¼ cup of the milk on top of chocolate mixture in each glass; stir slightly.

If desired, garnish with marshmallows or shaved chocolate.
