A creamy and festive milkshake with a delightful red velvet flavor, perfect for celebrating special occasions!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons red velvet cake mix
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 serving whipped cream for topping
- optional red food coloring (for deeper color)
- optional red sprinkles or crushed red velvet cake crumbs for garnish
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a blender, add the vanilla ice cream, milk, red velvet cake mix, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract. If you desire a deeper red color, add a few drops of red food coloring.
- Blend: Blend the mixture on high until smooth and creamy. Check the consistency; if too thick, add a little more milk and blend again.

Notes
- For a richer flavor, substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for milk.
- Add a scoop of cream cheese to the blender to mimic the classic red velvet cake frosting taste.
- Use chilled glasses to keep the milkshake cold for longer.
- Experiment with flavored syrups like cherry or raspberry for an extra layer of taste.
