Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas, peeled and sliced
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- ½ cup milk
Optional Toppings
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped
- maraschino cherry
- hot fudge sauce
- Banana or vanilla wafer cookies
Instructions
- Place two tall glasses into the freezer to chill while you make the milkshake. This will help keep the milkshake cold and prevent it from melting quickly.
- Place the sliced bananas, ice cream, and milk in a blender.
- Blend the ingredients on high speed until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the milkshake into glasses.
Notes
- Ripe bananas are sweeter and will give your milkshake a better flavor. You can tell a banana is ripe when it has brown spots on the skin.
- Adding the banana to the blender first will make it easier to blend and incorporate the other ingredients.
- Be careful not to over-blend, as this can make your milkshake too thin and watery.
