For this recipe, the coconut cream is key to getting that ultra-thick smoothie texture. Meanwhile, the espresso powder makes the chocolate flavor really pop. If you can’t find espresso powder, grind up coffee beans for a similar taste.

If you really want to take your Frozen Hot Chocolate up a notch, add a tablespoon or two of dark chocolate chips to your blender. It’ll give your smoothie a deep, rich flavor.

Top your Frozen Hot Chocolate with whipped coconut cream, and sprinkle with cacao nibs or dark chocolate chips.
