What? Hot Chocolate In Summer? You bet! Hot chocolate fans will love this twist on the traditional hot chocolate with this delicious Frozen Hot Chocolate recipe.
It gets better! This frozen hot chocolate recipe is a copycat recipe from the infamous Serendipity 3 bake shop in New York. The Serendipity Frozen Hot Chocolate recipe is from the legendary NYC sweet shop Serendipity 3.
Established in 1954 and coveted by the legendary Jackie O and Andy Warhol, as well as splashing onto one of Oprah’s List of Favorite Things, this is a beloved sweet shop whether a native New Yorker, tourist or celeb.

I’ve heard lots of good things about Serendipity’s frozen hot chocolate. We don’t live near it, so I’m glad there’s your copycat version I can try.

I think I’d find this a wonderful treat in summer, but for me the important feature of hot chocolate for me is the hot part. So I will wait for a hot day to try this.
