Two milkshakes from the same page: vanilla with ice cream and milk, and coffee with a spoonful of instant coffee and chocolate sauce around the glass. Both take five minutes and a blender.

Ingredients
Vanilla milkshake (3 servings)
- 3 scoops vanilla ice cream
- 1 ½ cups milk cold
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons white sugar the ice cream is already sweet, so taste before adding it
Coffee milkshake (2 servings)
- 2 scoops coffee ice cream
- 1 cup milk cold
- 1 teaspoon coffee instant: ground coffee will not dissolve and leaves grit
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Chocolate sauce, for the glass
Instructions
Vanilla milkshake
- Put the ice cream, the milk, the vanilla extract and the sugar into the blender.
- Blend until it is smooth and creamy, and no longer than that.
- Pour it into a glass and serve.
- Top it with whipped cream if you want to.
Coffee milkshake
- Put the ice cream, the milk, the coffee and the vanilla extract into the blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Drizzle chocolate sauce around the inside of the glass, pour the milkshake in and serve.
Notes
Both are better with the milk cold and the ice cream straight from the freezer, because the drink starts melting the moment it is blended. Blend as briefly as you can get away with: a long blend warms the mixture and thins it.
For the coffee one, instant coffee is what dissolves. Ground coffee stays as grit at the bottom of the glass. If you would rather use real coffee, use a shot of espresso, cooled, and cut the milk back to make room for it.
