Food Fun: A Chocolate Milkshake Recipe For Halloween
|
We received this fun Halloween milkshake from Kemps Dairy, which in turn received it from Half & Half magazine, a publication of Dairy Farmers of America), the nation’s leading milk marketing cooperative. While the recipe uses vanilla ice cream and chocolate milk, you can adapt the flavors to your favorites: coffee, mint, strawberry, what you will. > The history of the milkshake. > Also below is the difference between a milkshake, float, malt, and thick shake. You can save time by purchasing a witch’s hat sugar cookie, but it won’t look as cool as the one you can bake. You can also use chocolate ice cream for a deeper chocolate flavor. For The Chocolate Milkshake 1. MAKE the witch’s hat. Place the chocolate in a shallow bowl, and heat in the microwave in 20-second intervals until fully melted. 2. CUT the tip off the sugar cone and dip in the melted chocolate. Place the tip back on the cone at an angle. Freeze for a few minutes until set. 3. DIP the bottom of the sugar cone in the chocolate and place it in the center of the round stroopwafel or thin cookie. Freeze for a few minutes until set. 4. SPREAD an even layer of chocolate on the hat and immediately sprinkle the black sanding sugar all over it. Freeze again for a few minutes until set. 5. TIE a purple ribbon around the hat and set the hat aside until you’re ready to assemble the milkshake. 6. MAKE the whipped cream. In a medium bowl with an electric mixer, whisk the heavy cream and sugar until soft peaks form. Set aside momentarily. 7. MAKE the milkshake. Combine the ice cream, chocolate milk and chocolate syrup in a blender until smooth. 8. DRIZZLE the chocolate syrup on the inside of a milkshake glass, then pour the chocolate milkshake into the glass. 9. TOP with homemade whipped cream and the witch’s hat. Enjoy! |
