With just three main ingredients—velvety vanilla ice cream, rich whole milk, and a touch of fragrant vanilla extract—this milkshake comes together in under 5 minutes, making it the ultimate quick dessert or refreshing snack. Blend to perfection for a luxuriously smooth texture, and for an added touch of indulgence, top it with fluffy whipped cream and a maraschino cherry.

In a blender, combine the vanilla ice cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This should take about 30-60 seconds.
Taste the milkshake and adjust the thickness if necessary. If it's too thick, add a splash more milk and blend again.
Pour the milkshake into two tall glasses.
Optional: Top each milkshake with a dollop of whipped cream and a maraschino cherry for garnish.
Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy!
