Ingredients
-
3 large scoops vanilla bean ice cream
-
1 ripe banana (frozen chunks work best for thickness)
-
1/4 cup whole milk (adjust for desired consistency)
-
4-5 Nilla Wafers (plus extra for topping)
-
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
-
Whipped cream (for garnish)
Instructions
1. Prep the Base
Add the vanilla ice cream, ripe banana, and vanilla extract into a high-speed blender.
2. Add the Crunch
Toss in the Nilla Wafers and pour in the milk; starting with a smaller amount of milk ensures the shake stays thick and creamy.
3. Blend to Perfection
Pulse the blender until the cookies are broken into fine bits and the mixture is smooth, being careful not to over-blend and melt the ice cream.
4. Garnish and Serve
Pour the milkshake into a tall glass, top with a generous swirl of whipped cream, and finish with crushed Nilla Wafers and a fresh banana slice.
