Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 pint vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup milk
- 2 candy canes, crushed
- ¼ cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
Garnishes
- Whipped cream
- Candy canes
- Chocolate sprinkles
Instructions
- Blend ice cream and milk: Add the vanilla ice cream and milk to a blender and blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. For a thinner milkshake, add an additional ½ cup of milk and blend again.
- Add candy canes and chocolate chips: Add the crushed candy canes and mini semisweet chocolate chips to the blender. Pulse for 10-15 seconds until the candy is evenly distributed and slightly broken up.
- Serve and garnish: Pour the milkshake into desired glasses. Top with whipped cream, extra crushed candy canes, and chocolate sprinkles for decoration and added texture.
Notes
- Use full-fat vanilla ice cream for the creamiest texture.
- Crush candy canes coarsely if you prefer a more textured shake, or finely for a smoother consistency.
- Chocolate sprinkles can be substituted with shaved chocolate or cocoa nibs for variation.
- If you prefer a sweeter shake, add a tablespoon of sugar or chocolate syrup before blending.
- For a vegan version, substitute with plant-based ice cream and milk.
