Ingredients
-
The Base: 3 large scoops of premium chocolate ice cream, 1/2 cup whole milk, and 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder.
-
The Swirl: 1/4 cup salted caramel sauce (plus extra for the glass).
-
The Toppings: Chocolate ice cream scoops, crushed honey-roasted peanuts, and malted milk balls or chocolate cookie crumbles.
Instructions
1. Prep the Glass To get those beautiful drips seen in the photo, tilt your glass and drizzle salted caramel sauce around the inside rim, letting it run down the sides. Place the glass in the freezer for 5 minutes to “set” the sauce so it doesn’t immediately mix into the drink.
2. Blend the Base In a high-speed blender, combine the 3 scoops of ice cream, milk, and cocoa powder. Blend on low until smooth but still thick. If you prefer a “frosty” texture like the image, add a handful of ice cubes and pulse briefly.
3. The Assembly Pour the blended mixture into your chilled glass, filling it almost to the brim. Carefully place 1-2 small scoops of solid chocolate ice cream right on top of the liquid.
4. The Garnish Generously sprinkle your crushed peanuts and cookie crumbles over the top scoops. Finally, take your caramel sauce and drizzle it over the very top, allowing it to cascade over the sides of the glass for that professional “loaded” look.
Quick Tip
For an extra thick consistency, use frozen glasses and ensure your ice cream is rock-hard before blending. Serve immediately with a wide straw and a long spoon!
