It says 4 ounce so would Cadbury Dairy Milk, Milk Chocolate, The Classic Creamy Taste, Chocolate Bar, 200 g work?
Can this be made in a milkshake maker ?

Thanks for the recipes. I was actually looking for one for frozen hot chocolate! This one is perfect! Have a great week!
His is a delicious way to enjoy hot chocolate when you don’t want it to be super hot or it’s to hot to have it, it’s better than chocolate milk because it’s icy and just tastes better overall.
Can you add peanut butter to it and how much
