Nobody better lay a finger on my Butterfingers…

Unless of course you want to make me this creamy, dreamy Butterfinger milkshake!

Then it would be not only ok with me, but I would encourage it!

Butterfingers hold a special place in my heart.

I craved them in DQ Blizzards when I was pregnant, and I never quite got over that craving!

These milkshakes totally hit the spot and would satisfy those cravings.

Ingredients

To make these you’ll need:

  • Vanilla ice cream– Make sure you are using the good stuff! You want a nice high quality ice cream.
  • Milk– Whole milk is a must for a creamy shake.
  • Butterfinger candy bars– Full sized or fun sized chopped into pieces
  • Toppings– Whipped cream and Butterfinger crumbs

How to Make

It’s so easy to make your own ice cream shop style shakes right at home!

Just blend the ice cream and milk together in a blender on high until thick and creamy.

Pulse in the candy bar pieces until they’re incorporated without over mixing. 

Pour the milkshakes into prepared glasses.

Top the shakes with whipped cream and Butterfinger crumbs evenly out over top.

Serve immediately and enjoy!

Storing Leftovers

I don’t recommend storing leftover milkshakes.

Freezing them results in a weird texture and the ice cream will melt in the fridge.

Tips and Tricks

  • Make sure you are using high quality ice cream. You want the good stuff for the best quality milkshake.
  • You don’t have to use vanilla. If you prefer, you could use chocolate.
  • Don’t over blend the candy into the milkshakes. You want some candy chunks in there and if you blend too much it’ll be more candy dust.

  1. Well that’s a clever idea! Milkshakes all round then… the bits usually get melted and remoulded into something else, or binned! I know what to do with them now! Thanks for bringing these over to Fiesta Friday.
