Chocolate Coffee Slushies Recipes

CHOCOLATE-COFFEE SLUSHIES

Steps:

• Put cold coffee, coffee ice cubes, hot chocolate mix, and milk into your blender.
• Use low to medium speed, or whatever speed is recommended for crushing ice, to blend until the coffee ice cubes are thoroughly crushed.
• Pour into serving cups.
• For an attractive presentation top with a dollop of whipped cream and lightly dust with cocoa powder, shaved chocolate, or ground coffee.
• Adding a shot of Kahlua to each serving makes a nice drink for the adults on a warm evening.
• Note -- I often have enough coffee left in the pot to make a tray of cubes but in the summer I'll make an extra pot of decaf the night before to use for this and for iced coffee.
• Using sugar-free hot chocolate mix and low-fat milk cuts calories if desired.

COFFEE SLUSH

Steps:

• Mix cream, coffee, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a freezer-safe container. Cover container and freeze until coffee mixture is solid, at least 3 hours.
• Remove container from freezer and defrost in room temperature for 1 hour. Break coffee mixture apart with a fork creating a slush-like consistency. Transfer to a punch bowl or large pitcher.

CHOCOLATE SLUSH

Steps:

• Put milk through cocoa in a medium saucepan, cook on medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture comes to a slow boil and sugar is dissolved Lower heat and simmer about 2 minutes, stirring mixture a few times (watching for burn/ boil over), stir in vanilla- set aside to cool Pour cooled mixture into a freezer safe covered container and freeze.
• Place frozen mixture in a blender, blend to a slush.
• Freeze any leftover portion.
• Note: I use my coffee grinder to get a finer grind of the sugar, not powdered, just a fine grind.
