I am in love with Starbucks frappuccinos. I don't drink coffee, so I always get the blended creme versions. Yesterday, it was so very hot and all I wanted was a double chocolate chocolate chip frappuccino. I broke down and bought one. I couldn't help it. After I was finished indulging in the cold goodness, I thought that there must be an easier and less expensive way to meet my addiction.
I found it! And it was super easy too.
Doesn't this look amazing? Let me tell you, it was great. I just finished drinking it.
If you would like to make this cold drink from heaven, this is what you need:
1 cup milk
1 tbs sugar
3 tbs chocolate syrup (I used Hershey's)
1/3 cup chocolate chips (I used semi-sweet)
2 cups ice
optional- Redi Whip for the top
Place all ingredients in a blender. Blend until smooth.
I put Redi Whip on top and then drizzled some chocolate syrup.
I can honestly say that it didn't taste the same as Starbucks, but I still thought it was amazing. I know the Starbucks uses special expensive syrup in theirs and I'm just too cheap.
I will definitely make this again and again. By making this drink at home, hopefully I'll be saving some money and some driving time.
You should try this at home then let me know what you think!
