I fully expected for this homemade concoction to fail, as I am an extremely loyal patron of McDonald's during the month of March only -- I go just for their Shamrock Shakes! However, my whole family was pleasantly surprised and said that this tasted almost identical to the real thing; my husband even said these were better!
Ingredients:
3 cups vanilla ice cream
1 cup whole milk (I only had 1/2 & 1/2 and 2% -- so I mixed them!)
1/2 teaspoon pure peppermint extract
1/4 teaspoon green food color
Whipped cream (optional)
Green sprinkles (optional)
1 cup whole milk (I only had 1/2 & 1/2 and 2% -- so I mixed them!)
1/2 teaspoon pure peppermint extract
1/4 teaspoon green food color
Whipped cream (optional)
Green sprinkles (optional)
Place ice cream, milk, peppermint extract and green food coloring in a blender. Cover and blend until smooth. Pour into glasses, and top with whipped cream and sprinkles, if wanted. Serve immediately.
