My older daughter received a Disney Princess Cupcakes & More cookbook from a family member recently, I think for her birthday or maybe even Christmas last year. We haven’t used it yet, but she found it today and wanted to try something. Since we already had started making mini muffins from a pouch mix, we turned to the drinks section and came across a Raspberry Cocoa Freeze. I had everything except raspberries, but I do have plenty of frozen cherries, so we decided to use those instead. Because who doesn’t like chocolate covered cherries, right? Turns out the cherries were great in this drink and my daughter declared it the best day ever because we made mini muffins and a yummy, frozen drink! I’m glad she’s still so easy to please (well, most days at least!).
Cherry Cocoa Freeze
What you need:
1 1/2 cups frozen cherries
2/3 cup milk
1 cup vanilla ice cream
