TIPS AND TRICKS

Chill Your Ingredients: For the creamiest Nutella milkshake, make sure your milk and chocolate ice cream are thoroughly chilled before blending. This helps maintain a refreshing temperature and prevents the milkshake from becoming too watery.

Make This In A Jar: If your Nutella jar is almost empty, pour the milkshake into the Nutella jar and sip straight from the chocolate-coated jar.

Adjust Consistency to Taste: Don't be afraid to tweak the ingredients to achieve your desired consistency and sweetness level. If you prefer a thicker milkshake, add more chocolate ice cream. For a sweeter flavor, increase the amount of Nutella. Remember, it's all about personal preference!

Prevent Blender Mess: To avoid a sticky mess inside your blender, start by adding the liquid ingredients (milk) first, followed by the Nutella and then the chocolate ice cream. This helps prevent the Nutella from sticking to the bottom of the blender and ensures a smoother blending process.

Clean Up Efficiently: After indulging in your delicious Nutella milkshake, clean your blender promptly to prevent any stubborn residue from hardening. Simply fill the blender halfway with warm water and a drop of dish soap, close the lid, and then blend on high for a few seconds. Rinse thoroughly, and voila – easy cleanup!

❓FAQS

HOW CAN I MAKE THIS MILKSHAKE VEGAN-FRIENDLY?

To make a vegan Nutella milkshake, simply use plant-based milk such as almond, soy, or oat milk and ensure the chocolate spread you're using is vegan-friendly. You can also opt for dairy-free chocolate ice cream if desired.

HOW TO MAKE A BANANA NUTELLA MILKSHAKE?

To make a delicious banana Nutella smoothie, simply blend together 1 ripe banana, 2 tablespoons of Nutella, 1 cup of milk, and a handful of ice cubes until smooth and creamy.

Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less Nutella, and feel free to customize with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dollop of peanut butter for extra flavor.

CAN I MAKE NUTELLA MILKSHAKE WITH JUST MILK?

While a Nutella milkshake typically includes Nutella, milk, and ice cream for a creamy and indulgent texture, you can undoubtedly make a simpler version using just milk and Nutella. Simply blend cold milk and Nutella together until smooth and well combined. Adjust the ratio of Nutella to milk based on your desired sweetness and thickness. Though it won't be as rich and creamy as the traditional version with ice cream, it'll still offer that delicious Nutella flavor in a lighter and more straightforward shake.

MAKE-AHEAD, STORAGE 

MAKE-AHEAD

I do not recommend making this ahead of time. Serve Immediately: Nutella milkshakes are best enjoyed fresh, so serve them up as soon as they're blended to preserve their creamy texture and flavor. If you're making multiple servings, consider chilling your glasses in the freezer beforehand to keep the milkshakes extra frosty.

STORAGE:

If you have any leftover milkshakes, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a day. However, it's best enjoyed fresh to maintain its creamy texture and flavor. If it separates, stir it well before serving.
