Frozen Hot Chocolate

My sweet and useful sister brought me one of these yesterday. We (my sister and I) get pretty excited when Frozen Hot Chocolate season is in. It took a couple of years of passing the winter signage advertising these little beauties at Dairy Queen before I was willing to try one. I used to get mad when I saw the promotion. Frozen Hot Chocolate? It doesn't make sense. It cannot be. It's a contradiction and I hate contradictions. I also have latent bad feelings toward Dairy Queen itself. Not really sure why...something having to do with Halloween, white gravy, and a guy who never called back, but whatever. Dairy Queen is over priced and always has crappy service, too, so my anger towards their erroneously named frozen confection kept my curiosity at bay for a time. Then they went on sale. 99 cents on sale to be exact. I can't complain about that. So I tried one. Bliss. And you know what? They taste like frozen hot chocolate!! Yesterday I saw they were back and have been salivating and waiting for the perfect opportunity to get away for a treat. I was afraid they would not be as good as I remembered from last year, but they were actually way yummier than I remembered. And they are currently still only 99 cents! Why not try one? Let me know what you think.

  1. YUM! Except I'm FREEZING all the time. Do I need to wear an extra layer to be able to eat one? I'm excited to try it!

  2. I was angry when I first saw you talking about frozen hot chocolate the other day, it just doesn't make any sense. I'm glad you had similar issues when you first saw frozen HOT chocolate and were able to overcome that. I might just go out and try one now.

  3. Jules, I eat it with a heating pad on my lap and with mittens on.
    Randa, I am SO glad you get me. You are the coolest. Try one and let me know what you think. If you don't like it, I'll mail you 99 cents.
