📸 What it should look like
A thick, dense chocolate soft-serve with a softly mounded top and smooth swirl marks, deep chocolate brown in color, thick enough to eat with a spoon. It should slump slowly, never pour.
Use this description as a visual checklist while you cook, if yours looks close, you nailed it.
Ingredients
- 2 cups chocolate ice cream
- 1/2 cup cold milk
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup
- 2 tbsp sweetened condensed milk (optional, for extra creaminess)
Instructions
- 1
Add all ingredients to a blender.
- 2
Blend on low, stopping to scrape down the sides, until thick and smooth. It should still be spoonable, not pourable.
- 3
Serve immediately with a spoon (or a wide straw, if you insist).
💡 Pro tip
The Frosty is served at a special temperature that keeps it spoonable. If it gets too thin, add more ice cream; too thick, splash in more milk.
