Icecream Smoothie

The chicken week series has ended. A total of 7 delicious and easy-to-make chicken recipes had been posted on this series.
 

Now, to Kick Start the summer, I tried a yummy & a refreshing smoothie last week called the Icecream smoothie. Its a perfect treat for the scorching summer heat. What I liked the most about this is that the same recipe can be used with different flavours of icecream to produce varying tastes. I have just posted the basic recipe here. But dont be hesitant to try variations for this as you can never go wrong in any step. Its so damn easy-cheesy !!! Its ready in less than 5 minutes :)

INGREDIENTS:
 

¼ cup chilled skimmed milk

1 cup vanilla ice cream/any flavoured ice cream

1 teaspoon chocolate syrup

Some crushed nuts of your choice - cashews, pistas, almonds etc. (Crush them in a food processor/chopper)

3 biscuits/oreo cookies, broken into small pieces

HOW TO MAKE:

1)  Pop in the milk & the ice cream into a blender.

2) Beat them until soft and just combined and the mixture in the blender looks frothy.

3) Add a few crushed biscuits & pulse again for 5-6 seconds to fold them in the icecream mixture. Do not over blend as the frothiness will disappear.

4) Scoop into two glasses and sprinkle with remaining biscuit crumbs. Sprinkle the chocolate syrup over it. Serve chilled.
