The post Homemade Frosty appeared first on Budget Bytes.
I don’t eat fast food much these days, but the nostalgia I have for a thick, creamy Wendy’s Frosty and salty fries remains! Instead of hitting the drive-through, I managed my Frosty craving with just 3 simple ingredients I already had on hand. This Homemade Frosty recipe is ridiculously easy and totally hits the spot. Plus, no fancy equipment is needed—just a blender and a little freezer time. Whip up this recipe when you get home, pop it in the freezer, and then once dinner is cleaned up, everyone can have a sweet treat for dessert!
Easy Homemade Wendy’s Frosty Recipe
I had no idea making a Frosty at home could be this easy, and now I’m totally hooked on making them myself whenever the craving hits! I grabbed my Cool Whip from the freezer, a can of sweetened condensed milk leftover from making my Do Nothing cake, and picked up some chocolate milk on the way home from work. This easy copycat recipe is the perfect low-effort dessert that tastes just like the real thing. Oh, and it’s perfect for scooping up with a spoon or dipping your French fries in. 😉 Tell me, are you a fry dipper, too, or do you think that combo’s just plain weird?

how to make A Homemade Frosty step-by-step photos
Gather all of your ingredients.
Blend the ingredients: Add 4 cups whole chocolate milk, 7 oz. of sweetened condensed milk, and 2/3 cup of Cool Whip to a blender.
Blend everything together until smooth and combined.
Freeze: Pour the chocolate milk mixture into a freezer-safe container.
If your chosen container doesn’t have a lid, you can cover it with a piece of plastic wrap.
Now transfer the mixture into the freezer and freeze for about 2-3 hours. You don’t want it to be totally solid but more of a slushy texture. Whisk the Frosty until thick and smooth (it will be thick!)
Serve: Now pour your homemade chocolate Frosty into glasses, and enjoy!
Variations to Try
- Make a different flavor. Swap the chocolate milk for strawberry milk, or use whole milk and some vanilla extract for a vanilla Frosty!
- Add some coffee. Serve a scoop of my homemade Frosty over cold brew for a DIY chocolate ‘Frostyccino!’ I also think a shot of regular brewed or instant coffee would be nice mixed in for a little caffeine boost.
- Use an ice cream machine. If you’ve got an ice cream maker at home, this recipe is the perfect excuse to break it out! Blend everything up, pour it in, and follow your machine’s instructions until it reaches the correct consistency (thick but still soft enough to whisk, just like the real deal).
Storage Instructions
You can keep your homemade Frosty in the freezer for about 2-3 months. Let it sit out at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes (depending on how hot your kitchen is!) before mixing and serving if it’s too firm straight from the freezer.
