Make it with cacao
I'm sorry, I just had to comment. Why would you make an otherwise deliciously good for you desert with HOT CHOCOLATE MIX??? All you have to do is substitute cacao and you have a superfood desert. Come on Vitamix!!!!

Good but calories are different compared to the ap
Everything about this recipe is good, except the inconsistency of the calorie count. The vitamix app has it listed as 37 calories per half cup when it's nowhere near that low.

Hot chocolate substitutions
You can use cocoa instead of hot chocolate mix. The brand and type can make a difference (cocoa is a bit like wine; different processing, sources and brands have different flavors and strengths), I like to use Devine (it’s dutch processed) which I get at Whole Foods. You’ll probably want to use a sweetener with the cocoa, such as sugar (not my favorite), honey (my go to), maple syrup, etc. Add as much cocoa and sweetener to taste. Cocoa is strong, ie it can dominate other flavors, so start modestly then you can add more.

Tastes great but couldn’t get to blend
Even using the tamper, the machine had a very difficult time blending. Should I put the ice in in stages?

Super Creamy
This tastes like one of the richest ice creams I've ever tasted but without the guilt.

GREAT IDEA
I am a proud owner of all vitamix products, just bought the latest accessories last year. I eat a raw & cooked veggie diet, with various grains, nuts and fruits thanks to my vitamix blenders.I love this desert but was very surprised that vitamix would use processed chocolate mix containing refined sugar when cacao, natural dark unsweetened chocolate & chocolate nibs are available on the market. Vitamix needs to continue healthy natural living, with all recipe ingredients held to a high healthy & natural quality, sames as in your smoothies.
