Now if
that post title didn't catch your attention, I don't know what will. That is, if I still have an audience. [Enter poor excuse for lack of blog posts here]. You know what they say -- onward and upward!
This moderately healthy milkshake was the product of a cupcake craving. But with no cake batter in sight, I grabbed a box of
sugar cookie mix from the darkest corner of my pantry and got to work. In about five minutes, I had in my hands one of the best things I've ever sipped through a straw.
I laughed. I cried. I scraped every last drop out of the blender.
The sugar cookie flavor of this shake was so spot-on that I excitedly text messaged my husband and two sisters before I even finished slurping my way to the bottom of the glass. My youngest sister rode her bike to my house that night so I could make her one. A few seconds into her shake, and she quickly became a devoted fan. And if she likes it, then chances are you will too.
Sugar Cookie Milkshake
(serves one)
- 6 oz. almond milk (I use unsweetened original)
- 2 oz. half and half
- 1 frozen banana
- 1/4 c. sugar cookie mix, dry
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract (I use a non-alcohol version)
- 1 tsp. rainbow sprinkles, plus more for garnish
Blend all ingredients except sprinkles. Gently mix in sprinkles with a spoon (note: if using larger sprinkles, you may want to blend on low for a few seconds). Pour, garnish and drink!
Tell me friends, what have you been up to?
