I don’t know about you, but I could probably buy a small mansion with all the money I’ve spent on my favorite coffee drinks while out and about. That might be exaggerating just a little, but you get my point — it’s a lot. It wasn’t until I tried making my favorite coffee drinks at home that I realized it’s so easy! The Hot Fudge Frappe recipe that I’m sharing today is ready to drink in under 10 minutes, y’all. And did I already mention it’s pretty darn yummy?
Because I use instant coffee, I don’t have to wait around for the coffee to brew. This Hot Fudge Frappe is perfect when you’re running short on time but still want something tasty and absolutely delicious before heading out.

I love this Hot Fudge Frappe, more than I probably should, so I made this recipe where it only makes a single serving. I did this as a favor to you so that you would NOT drink all the servings like I did. I know, you’re welcome.
If you’re serving a crowd, the recipe can easily be adjusted depending on how many servings you need. Need two Hot Fudge Frappes, double it. Need three Hot Fudge Frappes, triple it. If you’re serving more than that, you may need a bigger blender.
When making my own favorite coffee creations at home, it’s so easy using Folgers instant coffee. Since I don’t have to use a coffee maker, or a coffee filter or coffee grounds, it’s super simple and the clean up is minimal. Just use a small bowl to combine your hot water and coffee crystals to make coffee.
I like drinking my Hot Fudge Frappe in a cute little milk bottle with a decorative paper straw, but I’ve also been known to drink it straight from the blender container when no one was watching. So, there you have it. Drink it however you want to.

I am drooling over here. Frappes are my favorite sweet treat!
Pam W says
This looks so good! I love fancy flavored drinks like this. Frappes are one of my favorite treats.
Catherine S says
This looks so good. I have never made my own frappe. I bet I could save a lot of money by making my own.
Ora Lee Gurr says
Thanks very much for the one-serving hot fudge frappe recipe, because I would not let any extra go to waste. We don’t always get away from the house (telecommuting is the wonder of the century and I love it!), so now I don’t have to think of an excuse to drive into town and Starbucks. It’ll be fun to make my own tasty drink – and as you said, way cheaper.

I’ll have to share this recipe with my teen daughter. She loves frappes, but they can get spendy when ordering one several times each week, especially on her waitress salary.
