Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 2 cups of vanilla ice cream, 1 cup of milk, 1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract, 1/4 cup of chocolate chips, and fresh mint leaves for garnish.
- In a blender, add the 2 cups of vanilla ice cream. This will serve as the base of your shake, providing creaminess and sweetness.
- Pour in 1 cup of milk. You can use whole milk for a richer shake or any other milk alternative you prefer.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract to the blender. This will give your shake a refreshing mint flavor.
- Next, add 1/4 cup of chocolate chips. You can choose semi-sweet, dark, or milk chocolate chips depending on your preference.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. Make sure there are no large chunks of ice cream or chocolate chips remaining.
- Once blended, taste the shake and adjust the flavor if necessary. If you want it mintier, add a touch more peppermint extract; if you prefer it sweeter, you can add a little sugar or more chocolate chips.
- Pour the mint chocolate chip shake into two tall glasses, filling them generously.
- To garnish, take a few fresh mint leaves and place them on top of each shake. This will add a pop of color and enhance the minty aroma.
- Serve immediately with a straw or a long spoon, and enjoy your delicious Mint Chocolate Chip Shake!
