About Peanut Butter Milkshake
If you love peanut butter, this three-ingredient Peanut Butter Shake is a must-try. It’s smooth, slightly sweet with a hint of salt, and intensely satisfying.
Ready in under five minutes, this milkshake is ideal for a quick treat or to serve at tea parties, weekend brunches, potlucks, or casual get-togethers.
For an extra indulgent presentation, top the shake with whipped cream, toasted marshmallows, caramel or hot fudge sauce, or crushed peanut butter cookies.
Ingredients
Peanut Butter – Use creamy peanut butter for the best texture and flavor. Crunchy peanut butter can make the shake grainy.
Milk – Whole milk gives the creamiest result, but skim or low-fat milk will also work.
Ice Cream – Vanilla ice cream is classic here; swap for chocolate ice cream if you prefer a chocolate-peanut butter shake.
To make a vegan version, choose plant-based milk (almond, oat, soy, or coconut) and dairy-free ice cream.
How To Make Peanut Butter Shake
Add the ingredients to a blender:
- ½ cup chilled whole milk
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
Blend on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
Tip – If you prefer a thinner shake, add a little more milk and blend again until you reach the desired consistency.
Pour into two serving glasses, add a few ice cubes if you like, and enjoy immediately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Add cocoa powder or chocolate syrup, or use chocolate ice cream instead of vanilla for a rich chocolate-peanut butter version.
Try banana slices, chocolate chips, caramel sauce, a pinch of cinnamon, or a shot of espresso. You can also experiment with other nut butters like almond or cashew, or add seeds such as chia or hemp for extra texture. A little vanilla extract enhances the flavor.
Yes. Replace dairy milk with plant-based milk (almond, oat, soy, or coconut) and use dairy-free vanilla ice cream.
Storage Suggestions
Store any leftover milkshake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Shake or stir well before serving.
For longer storage, freeze the shake for up to one month. Thaw in the refrigerator, then blend briefly to restore its smooth texture before serving.
