Instructions
- Add 1/2 cup whole milk to a blender, followed by 2 cups chocolate ice cream.
- Add 1 1/2 tbsp caramel sauce, 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup crushed chocolate-covered toffee or caramel candy pieces.
- Blend on low for 10 seconds, then medium-high for 20–30 seconds until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending to maintain crunch.
- Check consistency. Add 1 tablespoon milk at a time if too thick, or 1/4 cup additional ice cream if too thin.
- Pour into a chilled 16-ounce glass and top with 2 tbsp whipped cream and 1 tsp caramel drizzle.
- Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.
Tips
- Add the crushed candy pieces in the blender briefly to retain some crunch, or sprinkle on top for more texture. Substitute vegan ice cream and milk for a dairy-free version.
