Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 full size butterfinger candy bars
Toppings (Optional):
- whipped cream
- butterfinger crumbs
Instructions
- Gather a blender and prepare ingredients for a velvety vanilla Butterfinger milkshake. Allow vanilla ice cream to soften slightly at room temperature for easier blending.
- Combine vanilla ice cream and whole milk in the blender. Pulse on high speed until the mixture transforms into a smooth, creamy liquid with no visible ice cream chunks.
- Break Butterfinger candy bars into rustic pieces directly over the blender. Pulse the mixture briefly to maintain delightful candy crunch, avoiding over-pulverizing the chocolate and peanut butter fragments.
- Chill serving glasses in the freezer for 2-3 minutes to enhance the milkshake’s temperature retention and drinking experience.
- Pour the blended milkshake into the chilled glasses, ensuring an even distribution of candy pieces throughout the beverage.
- Optional but recommended: Crown the milkshake with a generous dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle additional crushed Butterfinger pieces on top for a decadent finishing touch that amplifies the candy’s textural appeal.
- Serve immediately while the milkshake remains cold and the candy pieces retain their distinctive crunch.
Notes
- Customize the milkshake by adjusting milk quantity for thicker or thinner consistency, ensuring perfect texture every time.
- Freeze Butterfinger bars briefly before chopping to prevent messy crumbling and achieve cleaner, more precise pieces.
- Use dairy-free vanilla ice cream and almond milk to create a delectable vegan version without compromising the creamy, indulgent experience.
