Description
A luscious Cherry Chocolate Chip Milkshake combining the sweetness of fresh or frozen cherries with rich semi-sweet chocolate chips and creamy vanilla ice cream, blended into a smooth and refreshing treat perfect for dessert or an indulgent snack.
Ingredients
Milkshake Ingredients
- 6 sweet cherries (such as Rainier or Bing), fresh or frozen, pitted
- 1/8 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup milk (2% for a drinkable shake, whole for a thick shake)
- 1 scoop vanilla ice cream (~4 oz)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Place the pitted cherries, semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk, and vanilla ice cream into a blender.
- Blend: Blend all ingredients until smooth and creamy, ensuring the chocolate chips are evenly incorporated.
- Adjust Consistency: Taste your milkshake. For a thicker milkshake, add more ice cream and blend again. For a thinner consistency, add a small amount of milk and blend again.
- Serve: Pour the milkshake into a glass and serve immediately. Optionally, top with whipped cream for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Use fresh cherries when in season for the best flavor, otherwise frozen cherries work well too.
- Pitting cherries beforehand ensures a smoother blend and a better drinking experience.
- Adjust milk type and amount depending on your preferred milkshake thickness.
- For a vegan version, substitute ice cream and milk with plant-based alternatives.
- Adding a spoonful of chocolate syrup can enhance the chocolate flavor if desired.
