Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup
  • 1 tablespoon chocolate sprinkles
  • 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream 1 scoop
  • 1/4 cup Kahlua
  • 1 tablespoon dark creme de cacao liqueur
  • 1 cup hot chocolate

Notes

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Place chocolate syrup on a small plate. Turn glass upside down and dip the rim in the chocolate syrup.
  • Dip the syrup-coated rim into a shallow tray of chocolate sprinkles until it is coated.
  • Place one scoop of ice cream into the glass/mug.
  • Add Kahlua and creme de cacao to the glass.
  • Pour hot chocolate over the ice cream and liquor.
  • Top with whipped cream and any garnish/toppings.

Notes & Tips:

  • Prepare drink just before serving.
  • Hot chocolate, and liquor amounts can be doubled, tripled, etc. and combined in advance, but pour over individual glasses with ice cream scoop just before serving.
  • You could really mix things up and use your favorite liquors in this drink – rum, coconut rum, or Bailey’s would all be yummy. A chocolate vodka could also work. You could also substitute chocolate ice cream or use a combination.
  • This is a pretty rich drink. The liquor taste is present, but not too overpowering; you could add more alcohol if you’d like – the hot chocolate and ice cream are heavy enough to support a stronger drink.
  • Use a nice quality hot chocolate – I use the hot cocoa recipe on the Hershey’s cocoa powder container.
