Equipment

  • blender
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • serving glasses
  • straws

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1.5 cups cold whole milk
  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1 tbsp honey (optional)
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  • Measure four tablespoons of peanut butter into your blender first.
  • Pour one and one-half cups of cold milk over the peanut butter.
  • Add two cups of vanilla ice cream to the blender.
  • Add one cup of ice cubes to the blender.
  • Secure the blender lid tightly before blending.
  • Blend on low speed for about five seconds to combine ingredients.
  • Increase to medium-high speed and blend for 30 to 45 seconds until smooth and thick.
  • Check that the milkshake flows slowly but steadily for the ideal consistency.
  • Pour the peanut butter milkshake into two chilled serving glasses.
  • Insert sturdy straws and serve immediately.

Notes

Keep all ingredients thoroughly chilled before blending for the thickest texture. Use natural peanut butter for a less sweet flavor or add honey if extra sweetness is desired. Blend only until smooth to avoid a thin consistency. Serve immediately for best results. For extra protein, add vanilla protein powder or substitute part of the ice cream with Greek yogurt.
