Copycat Wendy’s Frosty
This easy-peasy recipe is fun to make and tastes just like an original Wendy’s Frosty. You and your family won’t believe it until you taste one.
My son Josh and I love—and I mean love—a Wendy’s Frosty. We go to Wendy’s on many Saturdays after he’s done with Taekwondo and it’s our time to catch up with school and anything else he wants to talk about. Josh mostly goes with the vanilla Frosty and I always go for the chocolate. To me, if you are going to splurge on something decadent, it usually has to have chocolate in it, on it, or be all chocolate!
That brings me to why I had to make this homemade version at home. With all that’s going on lately, I wanted to still enjoy a favorite treat with my son—even if we can’t drive over to Wendy’s and buy one. This is the easiest recipe that takes a total of five minutes to make, with only three ingredients that you probably already have in the house if you have kids. Also, only two simple steps.
Get ready to love this homemade “chocolate frosty” and stay tuned for a vanilla frosty. That one may be harder to figure out but, I will surely share with all of you when it’s done and just right. In the meantime, enjoy this creamy chocolate frosty in the comfort of your own home.
