Fake but Fabulous Frappéccino

4 ounces (113ml) cold espresso or strong coffee
2 - 3 ounces (60-90 ml) chocolate syrup
1 1/2 teaspoons (7ml) vanilla-flavored syrup
4 ounces (113 ml) milk
3 cups (675g) crushed ice
Whipped cream, for garnish
Small pieces of chocolate, for garnish

Place the espresso, syrups, milk, and crushed ice in a blender, and blend until the mixture is slushy.
Pour into a chilled tall 12-ounce (340 ml) glass.
Garnish with mounds of whipped cream and small pieces of chocolate.

MONEY SAVING TIP: Keep day-old coffee cold in the refrigerator ready to freshly recycle into this fast and fantastic frappée for family and friends.
