Ingredients

Scale

For the Glass Decoration

  • 4 tablespoons chocolate sauce, divided (like Ghirardelli or similar)

For the Mudslide

  • 2 shots (3 ounces) vodka
  • 2 shots (3 ounces) Irish cream (like Bailey’s or Five Farms)
  • 1 shot (1.5 ounces) Kahlua
  • 2 cups ice
  • 6 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • Whipped cream, for topping
  • Cherries, for garnish
  • Chocolate shavings, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare Glasses: Start by adding one tablespoon of chocolate syrup into the bottom of each glass. Using a frother, dip it into the chocolate syrup and pulse as you move upwards around the inside of the glass to create chocolate lines approximately 1 inch apart. Place the decorated glasses in the freezer to chill while you prepare the drinks.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a blender, add the remaining chocolate syrup, vodka, Kahlua, and Irish cream. Then add the two cups of ice and six scoops of vanilla ice cream.
  3. Blend: Blend all the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and evenly mixed, ensuring there are no ice chunks remaining.
  4. Serve: Pour the blended mudslide mixture evenly into the chilled glasses. Top each drink with whipped cream, a cherry, and chocolate shavings for garnish.
  5. Enjoy: Serve the Frozen Mudslides immediately to ensure they remain frozen and creamy.

Notes

  • Use full-fat vanilla ice cream for the creamiest texture.
  • Ensure the glasses are chilled so the chocolate syrup does not melt quickly, creating a nice visual effect.
  • For a stronger chocolate flavor, drizzle extra chocolate syrup over the whipped cream topping.
  • You can substitute the vodka with flavored vodka like vanilla or chocolate for added depth.
  • Adjust the alcohol amounts according to preference but be mindful of maintaining balance for taste.
