Peanut Butter Banana & Nutella Loaded Shake.

Peanut Butter Banana & Nutella Loaded Shake.

Base: 3 scoops vanilla bean ice cream, 1 frozen banana, $1/2$ cup whole milk.
The “PB” Factor: 2 tbsp creamy peanut butter.
Toppings & Layers: Nutella (warmed), 1 fresh banana (sliced), and crushed peanut butter cookies or chopped roasted peanuts.

Prep the Glass: This is the “wow” factor. Warm 2 tablespoons of Nutella in the microwave for 15 seconds until it’s drizzly. Using a spoon, swirl it around the inside rim of a chilled glass, letting it drip down the sides as seen in your photo. Set the glass in the freezer for 2 minutes to “lock” the drips.
Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, combine the ice cream, frozen banana, peanut butter, and milk.

Pro Tip: Using a frozen banana gives it that thick, soft-serve consistency rather than a watery texture.
The Layered Look: Pour the shake into your prepared glass. For the layered effect in the image, you can pour half the shake, add a thin swirl of Nutella, and then pour the rest.
The Crown: Arrange your fresh banana slices in a circular mound on top. Drizzle generously with more warmed Nutella.
The Crunch: Sprinkle your crushed peanuts or cookies over the top. The texture contrast against the silky shake is essential!

Consistency: If it’s too thick to sip, add milk 1 tablespoon at a time. If it’s too thin, add another half-scoop of ice cream.
Saltiness: If your peanut butter is unsalted, add a tiny pinch of sea salt to the blender to make the chocolate flavors pop.
