Chocolate Milkshakes With No Ice Cream!

Step 1

Place all ingredients in blender and blend on high until there are no chunks of ice left. ** but make sure you're using ONE OR THE OTHER of either cocoa powder OR chocolate milk mix, NOT BOTH.

Step 2

(My blender makes a grumbling sound and then the sound changes when there are no more ice chunks.)** You can change this recipe so many ways to create your own-- add an 1/8 tsp of peppermint extract for a chocolate mint milkshake.

Step 3

Add some coffee or 1/2 teaspoon instant espresso powder to make a "Mocha" flavor.

Step 4

Omit the chocolate and powdered coffee creamer altogether to make vanilla.

Step 5

With a vanilla base, add any kind of berries-- or replace the milk with 1-1/2 cups orange juice & 1/2 cup water to make the best orange julius just like you get in the mall!

Step 6

(I don't advise using milk and orange juice together as the acid in the juice will curdle the milk in your stomach!) Play with the amount of sugar, cocoa, etc to create the best taste for you and your family.
