Ingredients
Scale
Milkshake Base
- 1 pint vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup milk
Add-ins
- 2 candy canes, crushed
- ¼ cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
Garnish
- Whipped cream
- Additional candy canes, for garnish
- Chocolate sprinkles
Instructions
- Blend the Base: Add the vanilla ice cream and milk to a blender and blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. For a thinner consistency, add up to an additional ½ cup of milk.
- Add Candy and Chocolate: 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, maintaining some texture.
- Serve and Garnish: Pour the milkshake into your desired glasses. Top each with whipped cream, additional candy canes, and chocolate sprinkles for a festive touch.
Notes
- For a vegan version, substitute dairy ice cream and milk with plant-based alternatives.
- Adjust the amount of crushed candy canes based on your preferred level of peppermint flavor.
- Use full-fat milk for a richer texture or skim milk for a lighter shake.
- If you prefer less texture, blend the candy canes and chips longer to break them down completely.
- Serve immediately for best flavor and texture.
