I am so excited to share this recipe with you guys today! Not that it’s a new concept or anything. In fact, chocolate malts are about as easy and basic as it gets. They’re a classic.
It’s just that I had so much fun making and photographing these, in those tall glasses, with cherries on top!
So, yesterday was like a perfect summer day here. The sun came out and the sky was so clear and it just made you feel like you wanted something cool to drink. That’s when I knew I had to make a Milkshake! I broke out the rationed malted milk (with an imaginary choir in my head singing the high note of the Hallelujah chorus.) and I made these milkshakes.
I realize, after living in Chile so long, that some of you are probably somewhere that is cold and/or snowing right now, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t appreciate a good milkshake too. Just sip it while snuggling near your fireplace, of course.
This is the kind of recipe that can be as easy as you’d like it to be. I like to make everything from scratch so I’m sharing my recipe for homemade chocolate ice-cream and basic chocolate syrup with you guys.
If you don’t have the patience for the ice cream or you’re uncomfortable around boiling sugar feel free to skip them both and use good quality store-bought. You will still have a great milkshake.
What do you think? Are you a do-it-yourself-er or do you prefer to keep it simple?
As always, the recipe is available upon request. The first request gets an upvote.
