About This Recipe
This is a classic American-style chocolate malt — a thick, creamy blended drink made with just three main ingredients: chocolate ice cream, whole milk, and malt powder. It takes only 5 minutes with no cooking required. What sets it apart from a regular chocolate milkshake is the malt powder, which adds a subtle toasted, grain-like depth that complements the chocolate without overpowering it. It's vegetarian, kid-friendly, and endlessly customizable for thickness and sweetness.
Tips:
- Use full-fat ice cream for the creamiest result.
- Choose whole milk for the smoothest finish.
- Start with less malt powder and add more to taste — malt flavor can be strong.
- Chill your glasses before serving to keep the drink cold longer.
- Serve immediately after blending for the best texture.
- For a thinner drink, add more milk. For a thicker shake, add more ice cream.
Variations:
- Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to soften the chocolate flavor.
- Use dark chocolate ice cream for a deeper, richer taste.
- Sprinkle cocoa powder on top for a bolder presentation.
