MMMmmm... that would've been great this past weekend when it was all snowy here. Also a variation would be Frozen Hot Chocolate.

4 squares BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate, melted
1-1/2 cups milk, divided
2 Tbsp. sugar
2 cups ice cubes
1 cup COOL WHIP or COOL WHIP French Vanilla Whipped Topping, unthawed
1 tsp. vanilla

PLACE chocolate, 1/2 cup of the milk and the sugar in blender container; cover. Blend on high speed until well blended.

ADD remaining 1 cup milk, the ice, frozen whipped topping and vanilla; cover. Blend on high speed until smooth.

SERVE immediately.

ooooo, I love hot chocolate. I love different versions! Okay, so, this is all I do with mine.
Heat milk, add cocoa and powdered sugar. Sorry, I don't measure, I just go by taste.
