Ingredients

  • 3-4 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • ¼ cup whole milk change amount depending on thickness preference
  • 1 slice Chocolate Cake
  • 1 tsp chocolate sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Start by combining the scoops of regular vanilla ice cream in a tall glass with cold milk. Stir that up until they’re mixed together well. Use more milk if you would like a thinner, more drinkable shake, and use less milk if you want a thicker, spoonable milkshake.
  2. Break your piece of cake into pieces and add into the milkshake, stirring until just combined.
  3. Top with chocolate sprinkles (if desired).

Notes

  • Keep the pieces of cake big enough that you can still taste the cake. That’s why I like to stir this in with a spoon compared to chopping up the cake in the food processor or mixing it all in the blended. You really want to get the taste of the cake!
  • Don’t make this ahead of time. Just like with any milkshake recipe, it’s best made and served right before serving.
