- Whipped cream (for topping)
- Chocolate shavings or curls (for topping)
Instructions
- Place the cold milk, chocolate milk mix, and ice cubes into a blender.
- Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and thick. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.

Notes
- For a richer, copycat-style flavor, substitute 1/4 cup of the milk with chocolate fudge sauce.

- Use dark chocolate milk mix for a deeper chocolate flavor profile.
