CONTEST BEVERAGE: Chocolate-Marshmallow-Malt Shake

CHOCOLATE-MARSHMALLOW-MALT SHAKE
Adapted by BumbleBeeBoogie

1 pint vanilla ice cream, the best quality with flecks of real vanilla bean
1/4 cup whole milk or half-and-half
1/4 cup dark semi-sweet chocolate syrup
1/4 cup commercial marshmallow topping or marshmallow creme
1 to 2 tablespoons of malted milk powder, to taste

In a blender container, combine the vanilla ice cream, milk, chocolate syrup, marshmallow topping and malted milk powder. Cover and blend until the mixture is smooth. Place the shake in the freezer for 1/2 hour to thicken the shake.

Remove the shake from the freezer and spoon it into tall glasses. Offer a spoon to scoop the shake for the first few delicious tastes, until the shake starts to soften a bit.

Makes 1 large or 2 regular-size servings.
