INGREDIENTS

1 tin (380g) NESTLÉ Ideal Evaporated Milk

2½ cups low fat milk, plus extra for serving

¾ cup (80g) NESTLÉ Hot Chocolate Original

1 tbsp icing sugar

Serving suggestion: Mint leaves

*Microwave cooking times may vary due to wattage; use the timings below as a guide.

METHOD

1. Combine ½ tin (190g) NESTLÉ Ideal Evaporated Milk and the low fat milk in a heatproof jug. Heat in the microwave, on high, for 2 minutes until warm.

2. Whisk in the NESTLÉ Hot Chocolate Original powder and pour the mixture into ice trays. Freeze for 4 hours or overnight. Refrigerate the remaining NESTLÉ Ideal Evaporated Milk until needed.

3. Once the hot chocolate mixture has frozen, place the chocolate ice cubes in a durable resealable bag.

4. Using a wooden rolling pin, crush the ice cubes inside the bag until a slushy texture has formed. *Chef’s Tip: Use a blender, if preferred.

5. Combine the cold NESTLÉ Ideal Evaporated Milk and icing sugar. Using an electric beater, beat the mixture for about 1 minute until light and airy.

6. Spoon the chocolate slushy mixture into glasses. Stir in more milk or cold water, if preferred. Add a dollop of the whipped NESTLÉ Ideal Evaporated Milk on top. Garnish with fresh mint and ENJOY!
