Let's get down to how to make homemade frosty ice cream treats.
Chocolate Frosty Ingredients
What's in a frosty? Our secret ingredient is to use Nestle Quik rather than chocolate ice cream. The cocoa powder in it makes a more accurate copycat of the original Wendys Frosty. The two remaining ingredients are vanilla flavor ice cream and milk. Give it a try.
The recipe makes one large chocolate frosty or two small frostys.
Directions
To prepare the frosty simply add all the ingredients to a blender and pulse until the frosty mixture has a smooth consistency.
Enjoy your chocolate milk based copycat frosty treat as is or top with whipped cream or cool whip.

You mentioned in article whip cream, sweetened condensed milk and chocolate milk but recipe is different, why?
What do I use? The ingredients in recipes?Reply

I had a freelance editor for a short while. She never touched any actual recipes, but did some bizarre things to the article portion. Hence I no longer use her and went back to writing everything myself.

I was so excited to have found this recipe for Wendy's Frosty. Ten years ago when I was going through Chemo/Radiation for breast cancer...the only food/drink I could keep down was Wendy's Frosty's. During my treatments I'd get at least 2 of them per day. When the owner found out why I was coming in so much.,I never had to pay again. I've made 3 of these in past week. Thanks so much. Robin from Houston. ❤
