Chocolate Milk

Homemade Chocolate Frosty
Makes 1 quart

2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup (4 ounces) chocolate syrup
1 (7 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Whisk together the milk, chocolate syrup, and condensed milk, and refrigerate until chilled, at least one hour. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream and vanilla until soft peaks just begin to form. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Pour the chocolate milk mixture into the bowl of the ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturers instructions (about 15 – 20 minutes in my Cuisinart). Once the ice cream is thick, turn the maker off, remove the paddle, and fold in the chilled whipped cream until it is completely incorporated.

Serve immediately, or transfer to a covered, freezer-safe container and freeze. (If freezing, let ice cream soften a few minutes before serving; you want it to be the consistency of a milkshake.)

I got this recipe from http://www.thekitchn.com/restaurant-recipe-homemade-chocolate-frosty-171084

I got this recipe years ago from the back of a marshmellow creme container. I have used it since for making fudge. It is easy and delicious.

Fantasy Fudge in the microwave

3/4 cup butter, 3 cups sugar, 5 oz. evaporated milk, 1 12 oz package chocolate chips (2 cups), 1 7 oz jar marshmellow cream, 1 tsp. van.

Microwave butter in 4 qt glass bowl on high 1 min. Add sugar and evaporated milk. Mix well. Microwave on high 3 min. Stir. Microwave on high 2 min. Stir. Microwave on high 3 min. Stir. Microwave on high 2 min. Stir. Remove from microwave, add chocolate chips. Stir until chips are melted. Add remaining ingredients. Mix well. Pour into greased 9 x 13 cake pan. Cool at room temperature. Cut into squares. Makes approx. 3 lb.

I use this same recipe for peanut butter fudge, vanilla, and butterscotch. Just substitute the chocolate chips with peanut butter chips or whatever type you are using. When making chocolate fudge, we prefer milk chocolate chips.

As you all know, we live on a farm. Part of the cows raised here are milk cows. To get milk, we simply go down to the barn where the cows are milk. The milk is stored in a large metal container until the milk truck comes to pick it up. The container keeps the milk very cold and delicious. So Saturday, Daniel and I go down to the barn to get milk. We wanted to ride the “bumpy truck” but it would not start. So we had to ride MawMaw’s car-not near as much fun but okay. We get down to the barn, go to the “spaceship” (metal container that holds the milk) and I get out our milk. I purposefully leave some in the pitcher I use to fill up my jars. I take a drink, ask Daniel if he wants a drink. He looks in the pitcher and says no. Then he leans over to look at the spout where the milk comes out, looks at me and says “you got any chockit milk in there?

I thought you all might enjoy a laugh today. Also another fall picture.

Enjoy your day and God bless.
