Here is a simple recipe for creating a delicious Ice Cream Milkshake using leftover ice cream:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups leftover ice cream (any flavor you like)
- 1/2 to 1 cup milk (adjust to your desired thickness)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Whipped cream (for topping)
- Sprinkles, chocolate chips, or other toppings (optional)
Instructions:
- Take the leftover ice cream out of the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to slightly soften. This will make it easier to blend.
- In a blender, add the softened ice cream.
- Pour in 1/2 cup of milk to start. You can add more later if needed.
- If desired, add the vanilla extract to enhance the flavor.
- Start blending on low speed to break down the ice cream. Gradually increase the speed to high for a smooth consistency. If the mixture is too thick and not blending well, add a little more milk as needed.
- Pause the blender and check the consistency. If you prefer a thicker milkshake, you can add less milk. If you want it thinner, add more milk and blend again.
- Once the milkshake is smooth and creamy, taste it to see if you're satisfied with the flavor and sweetness. If you prefer it sweeter, you can add a touch of sugar or a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
- Pour the milkshake into glasses, leaving some space at the top for whipped cream.
- Top each milkshake with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
- If you like, add some fun toppings like sprinkles, chocolate chips, crushed cookies, or a cherry on top.
- Serve immediately with straws and long spoons.
Enjoy your delicious ice cream milkshake made from leftover ice cream!
