Food Time!

Even though it's cold outside, I thought I would start your dreams of summer and warm days by giving you all this great milkshake recipe. I entered it into a contest but I didn't win, so you guys can have it! Hooray!

Cookie Monster Milkshake

Yield approximately 20 fl oz/2 servings or 10 shots

8 generous scoops of good vanilla ice cream (no low fat/ low taste crap!)

1/4 cup of 2% milk

1/4 cream

4 good size chocolate chip cookies*

Garnish:

Cocoa powder

Broken cookie wedges

Chocolate or regular whipped cream (optional)

Add ice cream, milk, cream, and whole cookies to a blender. Blend until creamy and dreamy. Pour into 2 tall glasses or 10 2oz shot glasses for minis. Garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder (use a small sieve or sifter,) a wedge of broken cookie, and a shot of whipped cream.

Enjoy and think of summertime!

*Note: Homemade are usually best, but if you don't have any or suck at baking, try the soft Pepperidge Farm or your fav local brand.
