Hot Fudge Bourbon Milkshakes
[discovered on Pinterest, adapted from Imbibe Mag]
makes 2 big shakes
1 1/2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ounces bourbon
- 1/2 cup hot fudge + 2 tablespoons
At the bottom of each glass, add 2-3 tablespoons of hot fudge. In a blender, combine milk, ice cream, vanilla extract, bourbon and about 1/4 cup of hot fudge. Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour into glasses and top with bourbon whipped cream + a another tablespoon of hot fudge.
Note: hot fudge milkshakes have been one of my family’s summer staples my entire life. They are MUCH better than regular chocolate milkshakes, and I highly encourage you to try one sans bourbon too!
Bourbon Whipped Cream
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon bourbon
- 1 tablespoon sugar
Whip ingredients together in an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Top shakes. [I used this neat thing my brother got me for Christmas one year.]
