Notes

*Use unsweetened cocoa powder for this Frosty recipe. I like using Hershey's or Ghirardelli brands Dutch-process cocoa powder for the richer color. Natural cocoa powder will also work here.

Tips:

If you don't have any cocoa powder, you can use ½ cup of chocolate syrup instead.
I do not recommend using real whipped cream for this recipe, as it won't create the correct consistency.
The amount of ice you use determines the consistency. For a thinner Frosty, add less ice. For a thicker Frosty, add more ice.

Storage: To save for later, pour the frosty into an ice cube tray and freeze until solid. It will keep for up to 2 weeks. Reblend when ready to enjoy.
