Thick & Crunchy Peppermint Mocha Ice Cream Shake Recipe
The spring is almost around the corner here on the east coast. Last week was bright and sunny but later this week it snowed again and we are expecting at least one more snow shower in the coming week. Last week when my little one came back after playing in the snow, he asked me if I can make him something like a snow shake..... ??????
These toddlers really force you to get out of your couch and make something exciting and new for them everyday in every meal. As I navigated through my refrigerator I came up with this idea of frothy ice cream shake...... !!!!!
My Son was pretty happy with my idea and just asked me to add some of his fav peppermint candies. So the question was, Vanilla Ice cream , peppermint candies & what else ....
And I found this pack on instant Mocha Latte in my kitchen cabinet. Armed with this varied choice of ingredients and a little googling I was more certain how to go about it.
In a few minutes we were enjoying our crunchy 'n' snowy peppermint shake with big cat moustache ....!!!!!!
I found these peppermint candies intriguing, here we have some sticking on the ceiling !!.... and some lucky ones fell in to this Ice Cream bowl !!!
