Ingredients
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream (softened)
- 1 cup milk

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional for added depth)
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the softened vanilla ice cream, milk, chocolate syrup, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract.
- Adjust Consistency: Blend on medium speed until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add more milk a tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency. For a thicker Frosty, use less milk.
