This chocolate chip frappuccino (kind of a starbucks copycat), is a rich and creamy blend of chocolate chips, whole milk, and chocolate syrup, and ice. It is a frosty, indulgent treat. Topped with whipped cream and an extra drizzle of chocolate, it’s the perfect pick-me-up for any chocolate lover.
We had these after dinner last night for dessert. Since there is no actual coffee in this (although you could definitely add some and it would be great), you can drink this any time. You can customize the sweetness level by adding less or more chocolate syrup and doing the drizzle or not inside the glass. I like to leave some chunks of the mini chips in this, so this straw I used for the pic was actually too narrow. I switched it out to one of these when drinking. I use these big straws for smoothies and I love them!
I used good old Hersheys chocolate syrup from the grocery store for this, but if you want to make your own you can do that, or buy a more expensive brand. Hershey’s works great though!
