Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a blender, combine the vanilla ice cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy. This will be your base milkshake.

    Create Flavor Variations: If you'd like a flavored milkshake, add your desired ingredient (chocolate sauce, peanut butter, strawberry puree, espresso) to the blender and blend again until fully incorporated.

      Set Up the Milkshake Bar: In an inviting setup, arrange your toppings and flavored milkshakes in separate bowls or containers. Keep the whipped cream, syrups, crushed cookies, sprinkles, fresh fruit, candy, and nuts at arm's reach for easy customization.

        Serve: Pour the blended milkshake into tall glasses. Allow each guest to top their milkshake with their choice of whipped cream, chocolate syrup, caramel sauce, crushed cookies, sprinkles, fruit, candy, or nuts.

          Decoration (Optional): For a fun touch, drizzle some syrup on the inside of the glasses before pouring in the milkshake. You can also create a whimsical look by riming the glasses with melted chocolate and dipping them in crushed cookies.

            Enjoy Together: Gather your friends and family around the milkshake bar and let everyone create their own dream milkshake. Enjoy the conversations and delicious flavors!
