Tips
- Chill Your Equipment: For the best texture, chill your blender and glasses in the freezer for about 10 minutes before blending. This will help keep your milkshake cold and frosty!
- Soften the Ice Cream: Allow the vanilla ice cream to sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before blending. This makes it easier to achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
- Balance the Bourbon: Adjust the amount of bourbon to suit your taste. If you're new to boozy desserts, start with 1 oz and work your way up!
- Perfect Hot Fudge: Warm the hot fudge sauce just enough to make it pourable, but be careful not to overheat it. You want it to be a perfect drizzle, not too hot or cold.
- Garnishing: Get creative with your toppings! In addition to chocolate shavings, consider adding crushed nuts or sprinkles for added texture and flavor.
- Serving Style: Serve your milkshakes with wide straws and long spoons for the full experience. This way, you can enjoy both the drink and the delicious toppings!
- Share the Love: This recipe yields two servings, but feel free to double it for a party or a special gathering. Everyone will want a taste of this delightful treat!
