Ingredients:
- 1 cup chocolate ice cream
- 1/2 cup whole milk (or milk of choice)
- 1/4 cup brownie mix (dry, from a box or homemade)
- 2 tbsp chocolate syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup whipped cream (for topping)
- 1 tbsp chocolate chips (for garnish)
- 1 tbsp crumbled brownie pieces (optional, for garnish)
- 1/2 cup ice cubes
Equipment:
- Blender
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Tall glass for serving
Instructions:
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients and ensure the brownie mix is free of clumps. If using homemade brownie mix, ensure it’s a dry cocoa-based mix.
- Blend Base: In a blender, combine chocolate ice cream, milk, brownie mix, chocolate syrup, vanilla extract, and ice cubes.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed for 30–45 seconds until the mixture is creamy and fully combined. If too thick, add a splash of milk; if too thin, add a few more ice cubes.
- Serve: Pour the shake into a tall glass.
- Garnish: Top with whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, chocolate chips, and crumbled brownie pieces (if using).
- Enjoy: Serve immediately with a straw or spoon for a decadent treat.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use a premium chocolate ice cream.
- Substitute almond, oat, or soy milk for dietary preferences.
- If you prefer a less sweet shake, reduce the brownie mix to 2 tablespoons.
- Store-bought or homemade brownie pieces can be used for garnish; bake a small batch if needed.
