Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup brewed coffee, cooled
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce
- Whipped cream for topping
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 2 cups of vanilla ice cream, 1 cup of cooled brewed coffee, and 1/4 cup of caramel sauce. Make sure you have whipped cream ready for topping as well.
- In a blender, add the 2 cups of vanilla ice cream. This will serve as the base of your milkshake, providing a creamy texture and sweet flavor.
- Pour in the 1 cup of cooled brewed coffee. Ensure that the coffee is not hot, as this could melt the ice cream too quickly and affect the texture of your milkshake.
- Add the 1/4 cup of caramel sauce to the blender. This will give your milkshake a rich, sweet flavor and a lovely caramel color.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until all the ingredients are well combined and the milkshake is smooth and creamy. You may need to stop the blender and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is incorporated.
- Once blended to your desired consistency, taste the milkshake. If you prefer it sweeter, you can add a bit more caramel sauce and blend again.
- Pour the milkshake into two tall glasses, dividing it evenly. The milkshake should be thick and creamy.
- Top each milkshake with a generous swirl of whipped cream. This adds an extra layer of creaminess and makes the presentation more appealing.
- For an added touch, you can drizzle a little extra caramel sauce over the whipped cream for garnish.
- Serve immediately with a straw or a long spoon, and enjoy your delicious Three Ingredient Caramel Coffee Milkshake!
Tips
- Coffee Temperature Matters: Always use cooled coffee to prevent melting the ice cream and maintain the perfect thick, creamy consistency.
- Blending Technique: Pulse the blender initially to break down the ice cream, then blend on high for a smooth texture. Stop and scrape down the sides to ensure even mixing.
- Customize Your Sweetness: Adjust the caramel sauce to your taste. Start with the recommended amount and add more if you prefer a sweeter shake.
- Chill Your Glasses: For an extra-cold and professional presentation, chill your serving glasses in the freezer for 10 minutes before pouring the milkshake.
- Whipped Cream Hack: For the most luxurious topping, use freshly whipped cream instead of store-bought for an even more indulgent experience.
