Description

A creamy and festive Boo-nilla Ghost Milkshake that’s perfect for Halloween or any fun occasion. This easy-to-make vanilla bean ice cream milkshake is topped with homemade whipped cream swirls for a spooky, delicious treat.


Ingredients

Scale

Milkshake

  • 4 cups vanilla bean ice cream
  • 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups whole milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Topping

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 3 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Blend Milkshake: In a blender, combine the vanilla bean ice cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract. Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, adjusting milk quantity if needed to reach your desired consistency.
  2. Make Whipped Cream: In a medium mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract using a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. This creates a light and fluffy topping.
  3. Assemble and Serve: Divide the milkshake evenly between four glasses. Scoop the whipped cream into a large Ziploc bag, cut one corner, and pipe a swirl of whipped cream on top of each milkshake to create a ghostly effect. Serve immediately for best texture and presentation.

Notes

  • Use full-fat ice cream and whole milk for the creamiest texture and richest flavor.
  • Adjust the milk amount to make the milkshake thicker or thinner as desired.
  • For extra Halloween fun, add chocolate chips or candy eyes on the whipped cream swirls.
  • This recipe serves 4 and can be doubled for larger groups.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the milkshakes at their best consistency.
