Step by Step Guide

1. Gently melt your favorite chocolate, either on the stove or in the microwave. While it’s still warm, coat the inside and outside of the glass, letting some drizzle along the inner rim.

2. In a blender, combine ice cream, chocolate milk, and oat milk, blending until smooth and creamy. Carefully pour the shake into the prepared glass.

3. Now for the fun part: decorating! You can do this before pouring the shake, but I prefer doing it afterward to keep the garnish intact. Finely shred blonde or salted caramel chocolate and press it onto the edges of the glass. Add marshmallows and chocolate chips for extra texture and flavor.

4. Finish with a generous swirl of whipped cream, then sprinkle on the remaining marshmallows and dark chocolate chips or drizzle with chocolate sauce. Serve chilled with a straw and enjoy!
