Serendipity

This is one delicious frozen-hot deep chocolate mixture, with a hint of peppermint, perfect for the holidays.

If you have not seen the movie Serendipity,  I recommend you watch this amazing love story made in NYC. The first time I saw this great film, I remember watching them enjoying this wonderful huge cup of chocolate, but not hot chocolate, FROZEN chocolate! I always wanted to learn how to make it, and finally, I made it but with a twist and it tastes delicious!

Hope you enjoy this recipe especially if you are a chocolate lover. You can always add different chocolates, and make it as frozen as you like.

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!
