Take the root beer float for a twist and throw in a holiday feel.
What better way to warm up a chilly winter day than with a cup of cocoa? Ok, so
this one also has a cool down factor too. The hot chocolate ice cream float
makes the most of both worlds. The ice cream adds a frothy vanilla flavor to
the cocoa as well as a playful feel. Add
a touch of graham and make the dessert into a drinkable version of the campfire
classic – s’mores!
Here’s What You’ll Need:
·
Hot chocolate mix – You
can use the instant kind or make the milk-based version.
·
Vanilla ice cream
·
Graham crackers
·
Red and green sugar
crystals
Here’s What to Do:
1. Crumble a graham cracker into a bowl. Use your
hands or the back of a spoon to make the graham into what looks like a pile of
coarse sand.
2. Make a cup of cocoa. You can do this on
the stove or in the microwave. Don’t fill the cup all of the way up. Leave
about one-fourth empty, for the ice cream.
3. Spoon a scoop of ice cream into the cup.
4. Sprinkle the graham cracker crumbles and sugar
crystals on top.
