  Quick Frappé For One Ingredients: 1/2 cup of milk 2 Tablespoons Hershey's chocolate syrup 1 Tablespoon of granulated sugar 1/2 cup coffee, cooled (I used leftover) 1 cup ice (4-5 cubes) Add all the ingredients to the blender and process until all is mixed and frothy. The ice cubes can be a little chunky if you wish. Notes: I use low fat chocolate milk sometimes, and skip the sugar, which is really good too. This makes one bigger glass, and is SO good on a hot day.
