Recipe: Homemade Frosty



When I saw this recipe, I grew estatic! I love frosties, and I know that it is something that my mom can have, since it is gluten-free. I decided to give it a shot, and see how well it really tasted.

At first glance, everything seemed like it would be fine. However, when I went to read the actual recipe, I couldn't find it on the site. It just had a picture, and the list of ingredients. Hmm...okay. This should be simple, though...right?

My first problem, was my intial thought process. I dumped all the ingredients into my mixer and was ready to turn it on. Hmm, looks a little full...I hope this doesn't splash out. Oh, I'll just run the mixer on the lowest setting...

SPLASH! I turn the mixer off, clean myself and the counter and floors up. Okay...um...oh, I know! I have a little mixer lid that should help with the back splash. I dig it out, place it on top of the bowl, and turn the mixer on again, on the lowest setting.

SPLASH! Sigh, okay, let me clean up again....Hmm...what should I do? Guess I will just have to mix this by hand.

Mixing by hand was much better, not ideal, but no splashage. I finished mixing, and placed it into the freezer, thinking that it will be ready for dinner.

Dinner has come and gone, so I pull the bowl out from the freezer. I took a spoon and tapped the top of it. Seems pretty frozen to me. I pushed the spoon down, to start serving...

SPLASH! Crap! Well, at least the mess was just on the spoon and my fingers. Guess it's not quite frozen. Oh well, maybe tomorrow.

The next day, we pulled it out for dessert, and had to wait about 30 minutes or so, before it was semi scrapable. Mike had to do that, because I was still hurting from my 9 hour hole digging. The taste was pretty good! I think that I will make some adjustments, to make it more frosty like, but I think that it's a pretty decent replication.

Ingredients:
1 can of sweetened condensed milk (Carnation is usually the best)
8oz whipped cream
1/2 gallon chocolate milk

Mix ingredients together.
Freeze for 24 hours.
Serve.

Enjoy!
