Pour half of the chocolate milk, half of the nesquik powder, half of the sweetened condensed milk, half of the whipped topping, and half of the vanilla in a blender.
Blend until everything is well combined.
Pour into a 9x13 baking dish. Place into the freezer.
Repeat steps 1, 2, and 3 with the remaining ingredients.
Every 30 minutes, scrape and mix the frosty breaking up the ice crystals. Focus on the outer edges, they freeze first. Keep doing this until it is frozen to your liking. I like it more solid so it takes about 6 hours. If you like it more slushy, it should be ready around 4 hours.

Depending on the thickness of your Frosty, you may wish to serve this beverage with a sturdy drinking straw or even a long spoon to dig into this treat!
Get fancy when serving this drink by lining the drinking glass with chocolate syrup, coating the glass rim with chocolate sprinkles, or adding some sprinkles and whipped cream to the top.
You can easily halve, double, or triple this recipe and the great thing about it is that it’ll still come out tasting the same without the consistency being affected by the change of ingredient quantities.
You definitely need to blend the mixture in two batches since the quantity of ingredients is too much for a standard blender. A food processor or immersion blender can also be used alternatively.
I suggest using two containers instead of one larger bowl, or another freezer-safe container, to place the entire mix into since dividing the mixture will help to speed up the freezing process. Of course, you are welcome to use a single larger bowl but then you may need to add some additional time for the mixture to freeze adequately.
