Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 0.25 cups milk
- 0.5 cups mix-ins (e.g., crushed cookies, candy pieces, brownie chunks)
Instructions
Place the vanilla ice cream in a blender or food processor.
Add the milk to the blender to help loosen the ice cream slightly. Start with 1/4 cup; you can add more if needed for your desired consistency.
Pulse the blender just until the ice cream is smooth and creamy, but be careful not to overblend, as this will make the milkshake too runny.
Add your chosen mix-ins (e.g., crushed cookies, candy pieces, or brownie chunks) to the blender.
Pulse the blender briefly to incorporate the mix-ins, leaving small chunks for texture.
Spoon the mixture into chilled serving glasses or bowls to maintain its thick consistency.
Serve immediately with a spoon and enjoy!
