Making Christmas Milkshakes
Start by adding the vanilla ice cream, milk, and peppermint extract to your blender. Blend everything together until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency, about 30 seconds to a minute.
Gently add the crushed candy canes to the blender. Pulse a few times just enough to combine and maintain the delightful crunch.
Carefully pour the milkshake mixture into your favorite glasses, filling them about 3/4 full.
Generously top each milkshake with a fluffy layer of whipped cream.
Drizzle chocolate syrup over the whipped cream for added flavor.
Finally, sprinkle some extra crushed candy canes on top for a festive touch.
Ensure good quality vanilla ice cream for the best creamy texture. Adjust milk for desired thickness. Chill the mixture before serving for an enhanced experience.
