Instructions

Let’s blend up this ultimate chocolate peanut butter treat:

1. Combine Ingredients in Blender:

  • Pour the chocolate milk into the container of a high-powered blender.
  • Add the contents of the hot chocolate mix packets, the mini peanut butter cups, the creamy peanut butter, and the desired amount of ice (start with 3 cups for a thick but blendable consistency).

2. Blend:

  • Secure the blender lid tightly.
  • Start blending on low speed or use the “pulse” function a few times to break up the ice and peanut butter cups.
  • Gradually increase the speed to high and blend until the mixture is as smooth as possible, thick, and frosty. Scrape down the sides if needed. Some tiny fragments of peanut butter cup might remain, which adds texture.

3. Pour into Glasses:

  • Pour the blended Frozen Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate evenly between two tall drink glasses.

4. Garnish Generously:

  • Top with a generous swirl of whipped cream.
  • Drizzle with hot fudge sauce and/or slightly warmed, drizzly peanut butter.
  • Sprinkle with additional chopped mini peanut butter cups or regular chopped Reese’s cups, if desired.

5. Serve:

  • Serve immediately with wide straws and spoons! Enjoy this decadent concoction.
