Gookie Dough Blizzard

It's hump day. We're halfway there, cookie monsters! This can only mean one thing, a slight celebration. Forget the calories and treat yourself to a shake. Yes, you heard us right. This is the Gookie Dough Blizzard, and your taste buds will not be disappointed. Also, let's be real, it's March, the sun should be shining so we're going to try and encourage summer by whipping the ice cream out of the freezer. 

You will need:

A monster tub of Gookie Dough in your choice of flavour 

One teaspoon of vanilla extract 

175g of chocolate chips 

430g of vanilla ice cream

125ml of milk 

Whipped cream (optional)

Prep time takes five minutes; cook time is 0 (YAY!), total time takes about 5 minutes and makes either two large or four small shakes. 

Directions:

Grab your monster tub of Gookie Dough and leave it out at room temperature for a few hours, so it is soft and more manageable to work with.

Afterwards, put the vanilla ice cream and milk in a blender and blend until smooth, add in the chocolate chips and add more milk if needed until you have reached your desired consistency. Pop in the vanilla extract and mix again for 10 seconds.

Add half of the tub of Gookie Dough into the blender and combine until it is well mixed. Divide the mixture between 2 large glasses and top with extra Gookie Dough and whipped cream. 

The key to making this cookie dough blizzard is just to pile a ton of extra dough on top. Do not hold back. Really load it up! Surely you can manage the rest of the week now? Look how delightful that Gookie Dough looks with it's rich, creamy texture and perfect sugary crunch. Eeek, pass us the tubs!
