I recently made this for a party I was having. Okay, and YUM! This is a delicious, cold, and very sweet punch that could be made for different events. My event was in the morning, and I wanted something to do with coffee so I thought it would be perfect.
Ingredients
- 6 cups water
- 1/2 cup instant chocolate drink mix (Nesquick, or Hot Chocolate mix)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup instant coffee granules
- 1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream
- 1/2 gallon chocolate ice cream
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped
- Chocolate curls, optional
Directions
- In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil. Remove from the heat. Add drink mix, sugar and coffee; stir until dissolved. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
- About 30 minutes before serving, pour mixture into a large punch bowl. Add ice cream by scoopfuls; stir until partially melted.
- Garnish with dollops of whipped cream and chocolate curls if desired. Yield: 20-25 servings (about 5 quarts).
*I did not top with Whipped Cream or Chocolate Curls and it was just fine. I also halved the recipe and the proportions worked out well.*
