The quantity should measure 4 cups on the side of your jug. Add ice cubes to make up the difference in volume. Blend until slushy, stopping to mix with a wooden spoon. Pour a little chocolate down the sides of the mason jars for garnish but reserve most of the chocolate sauce for the top. Pour the frapped smoothies into the mason jars and drizzle on the chocolate sauce. Because the chocolate has been made with cacao butter it will harden into a nice top which you can crack off and eat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>So delicious.
