Homemade Chocolate Frosty.

This EASY 4 ingredient Homemade Chocolate Frosty is such a fun dessert for a hot summer day. It’s everyone’s favorite childhood treat…made at home, made healthier, and made so easily! These Frosty’s are ice cold and super creamy, just like the Wendy’s version. But, they’re actually better, because they’re made with real chocolate, cream, and vanilla. Trust me here, this Frosty is SO VERY GOOD, all of my brothers have approved. There’s nothing not to love about this sweet and creamy chocolate Frosty. It’s everyone’s favorite…from kids to adults.

You guys, you guys! I made us a homemade chocolate Frosty, and honestly, it’s really delicious. Just like Wendy’s texture wise, but with better chocolate flavor.

I’ve said this many time over now, but as a kid I didn’t enjoy fast food very much. I think I ate it a few times as a young, young child. But I moved on from fast food pretty early on in life…

I was a weird kid, I loved carrots and ranch as a snack, and always ate my broccoli.

But I wasn’t that weird because I still loved a good DQ blizzard. And on rare occasions, a Wendy’s Frosty. I say rare because if the family was getting something sweet, we’d eat mom’s homemade desserts. Or if we were lucky, we’d grab a blizzard. It was rare that my mom ever took us to Wendy’s. We just didn’t eat fast food. But every once in a while we’d grab a Frosty.

The other day I was driving by Wendy’s and thinking about those Frosty’s. It got me wondering if I could make something similar at home. I just had to try it…and now here we are.

I wasn’t sure I could make an exact replica – and I didn’t, but in my opinion, it’s even better. Just as cold, just as creamy, but with real chocolate flavor and hints of vanilla.

Details

What I love so much about this recipe is just how easy it is. Just four ingredients that you possible have in your kitchen right now.

Chocolate milk, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla.

The process is as follows. Freeze the chocolate milk into ice cubes. Then blend in the blender with the cream, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla (I add a pinch of salt too). Blend until really creamy, then serve it up right away in short milk or juice glasses.

A few more notes

I did take the effort to make homemade chocolate milk, but it’s just milk, cocoa, sugar, and vanilla blended together. So the effort was an five extra minutes, and well worth it for the flavor.

I also love that I can easily adjust the amount of sugar. I love things less sweet, but you might like them sweeter. So add more or less sweetener according to your taste.

The recipe makes a good amount of chocolate ice cubes so you won’t be able to fit them all in your blender at once. Leave some in the freezer so you can enjoy a Frosty any time of day!

Simple as that. It’s COLD and CREAMY and just so darn delicious. I love that the chocolate and vanilla flavors really stand out. And the texture? Well it’s just like Wendy’s – perfection.

The real question?

How do you enjoy your frosty? Plain Jane and with a spoon…or do you order a side of fries for dipping?

I was always a spoon person. But I will say, I think a milkshake and fries are a really great combo!
