Instructions

Add vanilla ice cream, whole milk, malted milk powder, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, vanilla syrup to a blender.
Blend 20–30 seconds until thick and smooth; add 1–2 tbsp whole milk only if needed to adjust consistency.

Tips

For a lighter version, use low-fat milk instead of whole milk. Malted milk powder adds a distinctive flavor, so avoid substituting it for plain powdered milk.
