How to Make a Peanut Butter Chocolate Milkshake:

The super simplicity of this recipe means that anyone who can press a button can do it! All you need is 2 cups of your favorite chocolate ice cream (Breyers chocolate is our go to brand), 1 cup of milk – coconut milk or almond milk may be substituted, 1/3 of a cup of smooth peanut butter – or crunchy if you like to live on the wild side, plus one cup of ice. Throw the milk, ice and peanut butter into a blender and blend until smooth. Add the chocolate ice cream and pulse or blend until desired consistency—but not for too long, or it will get melty!

If you’re feeling a little fancy, add a tasty garnish. You can use a dollop of homemade whipped cream, a light shaving of chocolate or crushed nuts. Or sprinkle a bit of cocoa powder on top! The garnish possibilities are endless-some crumbled Reece’s, peanut butter or chocolate sprinkles, even cinnamon would be a lovely addition.

So whether you’re just home from work and have a hankering for something sweet, or you’ve got dozens of tweens to feed for the mega sleepover of the year, this quick and easy recipe is perfect for a fun sweet dessert or snack.
