Milkshakes with chocolate peanut butter fudge sauce….
AND
Butterscotch sauce!
But I did not make these because it’s summer.
No siree, I made them with my dad in mind. He likes milkshakes, but
only really good ones. You know the ones from either DQ or the really
old-time diner restaurants. Why is that old-time diner restaurants rule?
I mean seriously – good burgers, good fries, awesome milkshakes!
Okay, since it is Friday and my brain feels literally fried we’re gonna get right to it today.
Nothing
serious and no
messing around.
Although, this is a SERIOUS milkshake.
The base of the milkshake is vanilla ice cream blended with some easy
homemade butterscotch sauce, a little milk, a little vanilla extract
and if you’re into it, a little splash of scotch or whiskey.
Can I just say, the milkshake alone is out of this world!! The
butterscotch flavor is insane and SO good. Honestly, if you wanted to
stop right there you could. Vanilla ice cream and butterscotch sauce all
blender together is just, whoa! So good!
Oh and adding the splash of scotch? That’s pretty good too, very authentic!
So I said you COULD stop there, not you should.
No, you should definitely go on because it gets better
Chocolate peanut butter fudge sauce.
Ah huh. Fudge sauce mixed with peanut butter.
Here’s what you do.
First, you have to make the butterscotch, but I promise it’s so easy
and takes only five minutes. Second you gotta make the fudge sauce, but
again this is SO easy and can be done all in the microwave or in one pot
on the stove.
Next?
Assemble.
You take the fudge sauce and you drizzle it all over your tall glass,
then you take the butterscotch sauce and drizzle that all over the
inside of your tall glass.
Now?
Blend up that butterscotch milkshake and then…
Layer!
Butterscotch milkshake, fudge sauce, butterscotch sauce, butterscotch milkshake, fudge sauce, butterscotch sauce.
Guzzle.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Hot Fudge Butterscotch Milkshake
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Yield: 2 glasses + extra butterscotch and fudge sauce
Ingredients
Butterscotch Sauce
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon scotch or whisky (optional)
Peanut Butter Fuge Sauce
1/4 cup butter
1 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
Milkshakes
3 cups vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup butterscotch sauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon scotch or whisky (optional)
peanut butter fudge sauce, for drizzling
Instructions
- Make
the butterscotch sauce. Melt the butter in a small sauce pot. Add the
brown sugar, heavy cream and salt. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat
to medium. Boil for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the
vanilla and scotch, if using.
- Place 2 tall glasses in the freezer.
- To
make the ice cream, take the blender jar and add 1/3 cup of the
butterscotch sauce (let the rest sit on the counter for later), 1/2 cup
of milk (start with less if you like really thick milkshakes), 1
teaspoon vanilla and 1 tablespoon of scotch or whisky (if desired).
Place the blender jar in the freezer. Then scoop out 3 cups of the
vanilla ice cream and place it in another bowl. Place the ice cream back
in the freezer. Freeze both the ice cream and the ingredients in the
blender jar for at least 20 to 30 minutes.
- While
the ice cream freezes make the peanut butter fudge sauce. In a
microwave safe bowl add the butter, sweetened condensed milk, peanut
butter and chocolate chips. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir and microwave
another 30 seconds, stir and if needed microwave another 30 seconds.
Once everything is melted and combined together stir in the vanilla. Set
aside.
- When
ready to serve, remove the two glass from the freezer and add the warm
hot fudge sauce to the bottom of each glass, then add a drizzle of the
butterscotch sauce.
- Remove
the ice cream and the blender jar from the freezer. Add half of the ice
cream to the blender and blend on high until smooth. Add the remaining
ice cream and blend until chunky or smooth (your call). Layer the
milkshake in the glasses with the butterscotch sauce and the peanut
butter fudge sauce. Serve immediately.
