Ingredients
2 cups vanilla ice cream
1 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Scoop the vanilla ice cream into a blender.
- Add the whole milk and vanilla extract to the blender.
- Blend on high speed for about 20-30 seconds, or until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the milkshake into a tall glass and serve immediately. Optionally, top with whipped cream, a cherry, or a sprinkle of vanilla powder for extra flair.
Notes
You can use low-fat milk instead of whole milk, but it may result in a less creamy texture.
If you’d like a thicker milkshake, increase the amount of ice cream or reduce the milk.
For extra creaminess, consider using heavy cream instead of milk.
Vegan versions can be made using dairy-free ice cream and plant-based milk like almond or coconut milk.
Milkshakes are best enjoyed immediately but can be stored in the freezer for 1-2 hours if needed.
Add extra sweetness with a tablespoon of sugar or sweetened condensed milk if desired.
Experiment with different ice cream flavors like chocolate or strawberry for variations.
