Peppermint Bark Shake

Today, a friend mentioned the Chickfila peppermint milkshake in a Facebook status and I instantly started craving one. We didn't want to go out for dinner tonight, so I decided to try to make my own version. Peppermint shakes are delicious, so Peppermint bark milkshakes have to be eleventybillion times better. Right?

RIGHT.

Here's how I made it:

Take 12 Ghiradelli Peppermint bark squares and crush them up a bit.

I crushed them in a plastic bag using a rolling pin.

Add 2 cups of vanilla ice cream to a blender...

 And one cup of milk, and throw in most of the peppermint bark. Reserve a little for garnishing on top.

Once it's all smooth, you're good to go! I put some of the crushed peppermint bark on top of Shon's shake for garnishing.

And even the little one got a shake as well! (No crushed peppermint bark, because I'm a freak about choking...even still.)

The peppermint bark shake is toddler approved!
