Salted Caramel & Peanut Butter Shake

The Ultimate Salted Caramel & Peanut Butter Shake

Ingredients

  • The Base: 3 large scoops of premium vanilla bean ice cream, 1/2 cup whole milk, and 2 tbsp creamy peanut butter.

  • The Glaze: 1/4 cup salted caramel sauce (plus extra for drizzling).

  • The Toppings: Whipped cream, one extra scoop of vanilla ice cream, 1/4 cup crushed roasted peanuts, and 1 fresh strawberry.


Instructions

  1. Prep the Glass: Take a chilled glass mug. Using a spoon, drizzle salted caramel sauce along the inside walls of the glass in a vertical pattern. Place the mug in the freezer for 5 minutes to let the caramel “set” so it doesn’t immediately melt into the shake.

  2. Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, combine the 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream, milk, and peanut butter. Blend on medium speed until thick and smooth. If it’s too thin, add another half-scoop of ice cream; if too thick, add a splash of milk.

  3. The Assembly: Pour the blended mixture into your prepared glass, leaving about an inch of space at the top.

  4. The “Freakshake” Crown: * Pipe a generous mound of whipped cream over the top.

    • Carefully place a solid scoop of vanilla ice cream right in the center of the whipped cream.

    • Drizzle more salted caramel over the scoop, letting it overflow down the sides of the mug.

    • Generously sprinkle crushed peanuts over the entire top.

  5. The Finishing Touch: Slice a fresh strawberry halfway through the bottom and perch it on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a wide straw and a long spoon.


Pro Tip: To get that professional “drip” look, ensure your caramel sauce is at room temperature. If it’s too cold, it won’t flow; too hot, and it will melt your shake instantly!
