How To Make A Milkshake Using Hazelnut Spread

The first day of summer might still be a month away, but down here in the Carolinas, things have already started to heat up.   We have officially crossed over into the 90 degrees and above territory.  If you’re already looking for something to help you beat the heat, you’re in luck today.  I’m sharing a recipe for one of the most delicious and easiest ice-cold milkshakes to make using Once Again Nut Butter’s hazelnut spread.

I’ve been drinking coffee since I was about 13.  And my all-time favorite coffee flavor is hazelnut.  However, due to a recent health issue and the dreadfulness that is adult acne, I’ve had to cut way back on my hazelnut coffee intake.  So I decided to get my hazelnut fix via milkshake.  Genius, right?!

Also, let’s talk about this Once Again Nut Butter Amoré Hazelnut Spread with Cocoa and Milk.  This stuff is ridiculously good!  And when I say good, I mean good to the point that you could probably just eat this straight from the jar as is.  I’ve had other hazelnut spreads and they simply don’t compare this one.  Not even a little bit.

This gourmet spread is organic, gluten-free, and fair trade certified.  Did I mention that it has zero cholesterol and no trans fat?!  I can tell you that this spread is great on toast, ice cream, and you can even make hot chocolate with it!  So, it’s very versatile.  

What makes this recipe so easy is that there’s no prep work!  Also, there are literally three steps.  So, let’s get into this.

• 2 cups of ice cream
• 1/3 cup of Once Again Nut Butter Hazelnut Spread
• 2/3 cups of soy milk (you can substitute for whatever milk you drink)
• ice (start off with 1/2 cup and add more if needed)

Starting with the ice first, pour all your ingredients into your blender.

Once you have all of your ingredients in the blender, put the top on and blend until your milkshake it at the consistency that you prefer.  If you need to add more ice or milk, do it.  Just remember to add a little bit at a time. 

So funny story, I accidentally hit the blend button while the top on blender was off after I had added my ice and my ice cream.  Talk about facepalm moment.  Thankfully, my reflexes were quick and I got it turned off before there was too much of a mess.

Once you have your ingredients well blended and you are happy with the consistency, pour it and enjoy.  I decided to garnish my milkshake with some chocolate chip cookie thins, but this is totally optional.

Tip:  Chill your glass in the freezer prior to making your milkshake.  Nothing makes a milkshake melt faster than a warm glass.
