Chocolates and desserts are my weakness point. When nothing goes right you always have a chocolate to fall upon! I love my hot chocolates, cold chocolates, chocolate syrups on food, chocolate chips in everything. Just yesterday I got my son a chocolate syrup. He isn’t too fond of chocolate yet – thankfully, but has turned out to be a picky eater.  So I am okay, if he’s having chocolate laced milk! This Xtra Chocolate Ice-cream Float is loaded with chocolate – in almost every form. There’s cocoa powder, chocolate chips, chocolate syrup, chocolate shavings and vanilla ice-cream. So if you are a chocolate lover – this is definitely for you.

How to make the Xtra Chocolate Ice-cream Float?

This is the simplest float you can make. It’s as simple as making a cup of tea or coffee! The Xtra Chocolate Ice-cream Float is a great recipe for kids to try out in the kitchen. It’s also great for your odd time dessert cravings. It literally takes 3 minutes to do and its always great when you finish it off soon enough. We finished off before 3 minutes I guess.

How else can you make this Xtra Chocolate Ice-cream Float?

Let me give you an inside story on floats. I enjoy ice-cream floats with root beer, ice tea, aerated drinks (I have very less of them now, though). You can make an ice-cream float almost everything as long as you like it!

Don’t wait too long if you are making with hot chocolate because it will melt the ice-cream soon. My son gulped half a glass of the Xtra Chocolate Ice-cream Float. He liked the hot chocolate part and didn’t want the ice-cream. So you know no one in the house is complaining!
