Malted Milk Ball Shake Float

This incredibly delicious milkshake float comes packed with double the ice cream and malted milk ball candies all over the place!

What on earth is a Shake Float?  Well, you’ve heard of a root beer float right…..where you add ice cream to a glass and pour root beer over it.

A shake float is the same only you pour a shake over the ice cream that’s in the glass.  And the ice cream in the glass is a different flavor than the ice cream that the shake is made out of.

How fun is that!

This shake is made with vanilla ice cream, malted milk balls, and malted milk.

Then, the shake is poured over Expresso Chocolate Chip ice cream.

But you can use any combination of flavors that you like.  Just think of the possibilities!  What a fun and over the top amazingly delicious treat.

The biggest decision you’ll need to make is if you should use a straw or a spoon.

I used both…maybe at the same time.  I don’t remember because it was so good that it was all gone before I knew it.

Let’s check out the ingredients.

For the Milkshake – Milk, vanilla ice cream, malted milk balls, malted milk powder

For the Serving Glasses (the “Float”) – Expresso chocolate chip ice cream (or flavor of your choice).

A printable recipe with the measurements and instructions is located at the bottom of this post.
