My Uncle
Phil lived in Chicago (southside-1964), and when we went to visit him, he would
make us malted milk shakes.
Today, I am going to share with you my secret Uncle Phil recipe.
Yippee!
Basic
Ingredients:
You need a
regular size blender
Gallon of
ice cream – Vanilla, Chocolate, etc. etc.
2 tbsp.
Malted Powder or 1 box of Malted chocolate balls
2 egg whites – or if you’re lazy, throw it all in.
½ tbsp.
Vanilla extract or Almond extract
1 cup of
cream – optional if you use whole milk.
½ Gallon
of milk – whole milk is preferred

| Any malted powder will do. This is what I use. |
Before you get started, put your serving glasses in the freezer.
(Milk
shakes are more better when served in an ice-cold glass.)
Step 1: place in blender, 2 tbsp. Malted Powder – or 1 box of Chocolate Malted Ball, 2 egg whites, ½ tbsp. Vanilla extract, 1 cup of cream, and 1 cup of milk.
Step2: Mix ingredients for 10-20 seconds.
Don’t over do it. You just want the ingredients mixed up really well before you
start adding Ice Cream and more milk.
Step 3: Add a couple scopes of ice cream
and a splash of milk – then blend. Continue until you get the desired thickness
for you. Add- blend, add blend. (I add a lot more Ice Cream than milk)
I
like really, thick shakes – thick enough for the spoon to stand on its own.
And there
you have it –A Good Milk Shake.

World’s Greatest Milk Shake
If’n you
want to step up your game and make the W. G. M. S., well, you’re gonna need
BLUE BELL Ice Cream, for sure! Pick the flavor you like and go for it.
I like
cookies and cream and use whole milk. I typically make 4 full glasses. Eat one,
freeze the others. Frozen Milk Shake is gooooood.
When the grandkids come over, I get a Gallon of Vanilla,
add 2 tbsp. of Malt Powder and all the other ingredients, but then
I let them add any flavor they want – chocolate cookies or
strawberries; basically, whatever their weird little minds think of – that have thrown in candy bars that they like.
The Grandkids
also like it when I put whipped cream and sprinkles on top.
It’s a
great dessert for any occasion – reading a book, watching a movie, or just cuz.
Wishing
you all a World’s Greatest Milk Shake Thanksgiving!
