Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Add the 2 cups vanilla ice cream, 1 cup whole milk and 1 tsp vanilla extract to a blender.

  2. Step 2

    Blend on high until thick and smooth, about 45 seconds, adding up to 2 tbsp more milk if the blender stalls.

  3. Step 3

    Pour into a tall glass — it should ooze slowly off the spoon, not run like plain milk.

  4. Step 4

    Top with the 1/4 cup whipped cream, add a straw and serve straight away.
