Shake It

It's the middle of August, and we're finally starting to get warm, summer-like days here along the coast in CA. And there's nothing better on a hot summer day like a chocolate milkshake. I found this recipe and decided to give it a whirl—adding extra vanilla and chocolate sauce of course. The result was everything I hoped it would be. The marshmallow cream was amazing and a key player when mixing it all up when it was half full. I saved the rest of the batch in the fridge so when we got home from the beach I served up round 2, which tasted even more amazing after a sun-filled day at the beach.
[ I used Breyers Chocolate Ice Cream ]
[ Homemade chocolate sauce is always the best ]
[ shaved dark chocolate - not just a garnish, it truly added to the taste ]
[ a straw is a must so you can make the inappropriate slurping noise at the end so everyone knows that you're done ]
