1 cup ice cubes
2 tablespoons salt
1/4 cup chocolate syrup
1 tablespoon unsalted butter (optional)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
1. Start by filling a bowl with ice cubes. You can use any type of ice, but crushed ice will give a more authentic snow cone experience.
2. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of salt evenly over the ice cubes. This is the part where you get to relive your childhood creativity.
3. Drizzle 1/4 cup of chocolate syrup over the salted ice. You can adjust the amount to your taste, but this is where the magic happens.
4. If you're feeling extra indulgent, add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter and 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the chocolate syrup before drizzling it over the ice. This will give your treat a richer flavor.
5. Use a spoon to mix the salt, chocolate, and ice together, making sure the ice is evenly coated.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy the nostalgic taste of your childhood creation.
