Homemade Chocolate Frosty - no ice cream maker! {#TruMoo #ad}

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of TruMoo for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Don't you hate when you get all excited about a recipe and then you realize it takes a special appliance or ingredients that you don't have? That's how I felt when I first saw a DIY frosty recipe floating around on Pinterest. I clicked over just to find out it required an ice cream maker. Now, I have an ice cream maker and I love it...but it's one of those that requires ice and salt and needs to be monitored while churning, etc. Ain't nobody got time for that. I break that out for special occasions. THIS recipe is different. No ice cream maker needed! And it uses common ingredients that you may already have in your fridge/pantry.

It's thick and creamy and taste just like a Frosty from Wendy's! But guess what...this one is made with light whipped topping, fat free sweetened condensed milk, unsweetened cocoa, and lowfat 1% TruMoo Chocolate Milk! Just blend the ingredients together and stick in the freezer for 30 mins to an hour, stir and enjoy!

My kids are so excited that I can make these at home, and I am excited that they are getting more milk in their diet (my 11 and 13 year old girls are not drinking enough milk these days). TruMoo Milk contains no artificial growth hormones, no high fructose corn syrup and contains 8 essential nutrients. (See TruMoo for more information)

This one was in the freezer for a full hour and was nice and thick and spoon worthy! If you take it out sooner, you can use a straw...just depends on your preference!

Homemade Chocolate Frosty

1 container of whipped topping (8 oz); frozen
1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup (8 oz) chocolate milk (I used 1% TruMoo)

Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Pour into freezer safe container and freeze for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from freezer and stir. Makes 2 servings.

It's easy and delicious. The leftover condensed milk can be stored in the fridge so you can make this again and again :-) We've already made it a couple of times!

If you are not a chocolate fan, that's okay, because TruMoo also comes in Strawberry and Vanilla flavors. You can make your own special frosty drinks with whichever flavor you like best. See more great ways to enjoy TruMoo.
