Vanilla or Chocolate Malted
Recipe by Marcia Stanley, MS, RDN, Culinary Dietitian
- Prep time 5 minutes
- Servings 1
Ingredients
- 1 cup vanilla or chocolate ice cream (about 2 scoops)
- 1/2 cup milk (skim, 2% or whole)
- 2 tablespoons malted milk powder
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
- Optional garnish: whipped cream, sprinkles, crushed cookies, miniature chocolate chips or crushed peppermint candies
Similar to a milkshake, but not quite the same—a healthy dose of malted milk powder makes this shake taste like a malted milk ball.
Instructions
- Let ice cream stand at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes or until slightly softened, but not runny.
- Meanwhile, place milk, malted milk powder and vanilla in blender container. Cover and blend until malted milk powder is dissolved.
- Add ice cream to milk mixture. Cover and blend until nearly smooth, stopping to push down ice cream, as necessary. Pour into one 12-ounce glass. Top with garnish (if desired). Serve immediately.
