Chocolate Milk Shakes

I love using the blender in the summer. Cool summer treats are so simple to make, and the kids love them. Although these shakes are definitely a dessert, at least I am in control of the ingredients. The nice thing about this recipe is that there is no ice cream in it. Plus I always have the ingredients on hand. My son especially loves these milkshakes, as he’s the one with the biggest sweet tooth in our family!

Chocolate Milk Shakes

2 cups whole milk

½ cup powdered sugar

¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 tsp. vanilla

2 cups ice

Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until the ice is broken and everything is thoroughly mixed. Yield: 4-5 servings

Recipe Note: Definitely use whole milk for this recipe. It needs the fat for the best flavor.
