Instructions

Add 1/2 cup whole milk and 2 cups vanilla ice cream into a blender.
Add 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract.
Add 1/4 cup chopped nougat candy pieces to the blender.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then on medium-high for 20–30 seconds, just until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending to keep some texture from the nougat.
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.
Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.

Tips

Use soft nougat candy chopped finely so it blends well but still adds texture. For a nut-free version, omit nougat or substitute with mini toffee bits.
