Instructions

Melt the white chocolate gently in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
Add 1/2 cup whole milk to a blender, followed by 2 cups vanilla ice cream and the melted white chocolate.
Add 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then on medium-high for 20 to 30 seconds until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending.
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 white chocolate shavings.
Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.

Tips

Melt the white chocolate gently to prevent scorching. Use good quality white chocolate for best flavor. To make ahead, prepare the base without whipped cream and add it just before serving.
