Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I scoop the ice cream into my blender. I love how the ice cream clumps together and slowly begins to melt as it warms up against the blades. Adding in the milk is the next step; this is where things start to get fun! You can add more or less milk depending on how thick you prefer your shake. Once the ingredients are in, I sprinkle in the sugar. This little addition can make a huge difference in taste! After everything is set, I secure the blender lid and blend on high until it’s smooth and creamy. The sound of the blender roaring to life and the sweet smell of melting ice cream fills my kitchen.
