Ingredients
  

  • 2 cup Whole milk
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup Sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/3 cup Cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Whisk together whole milk, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, sugar, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until smooth and no lumps remain.
  2. Pour the mixture into a shallow freezer-safe container and freeze for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals.
  3. Transfer the semi-frozen mixture to a blender and blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds until thick and creamy like soft-serve.
  4. Serve immediately for the signature thick shake texture, or freeze for 15 more minutes if a firmer consistency is preferred.
