A rich, creamy chocolate milkshake that tastes just like a classic diner treat, made in minutes with ice cream, cocoa, and chocolate sauce for an indulgent, customizable dessert.

Ingredients

4 cups vanilla ice cream or chocolate ice cream

¼½ cup heavy cream or whole milk

1½ tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder or regular cocoa powder

⅓ cup hot fudge sauce or chocolate syrup

Sweetened whipped cream (optional topping)

Chocolate shavings (optional topping)

Fresh strawberries (optional topping)

Chocolate sauce (optional topping)

Instructions

  1. Add the ice cream to a clean, dry blender.
  2. Add cocoa powder, hot fudge sauce or chocolate syrup, and ¼ cup of the cream or milk.
  3. Blend on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
  4. If the milkshake is too thick, add more cream or milk a tablespoon at a time and blend again.
  5. Taste and adjust sweetness or chocolate flavor as desired.
  6. Pour into chilled glasses, add toppings if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

Use vanilla ice cream for a lighter chocolate flavor or chocolate ice cream for extra richness.

Heavy cream creates a thicker, richer shake than milk.

Serve immediately for best texture.

Easily customizable with mix-ins like peanut butter or banana.
