Recipe: Chocolate Coconut Milkshake

Taking inspiration from the beloved Mounds bar — sweet coconut dipped in dark chocolate — I added coconut milk to my milkshake. After all, it's a fabulous flavor combination in any form!

Ingredients

• 2 cups chocolate ice cream
• 3 tablespoons chocolate syrup
• 3/4 cup coconut milk
• 1/4 cup chocolate milk
• whipped cream, for serving

Directions

Combine ice cream, syrup and coconut milk in a blender; puree until smooth. Pour into a tall glass, top with whipped cream, and enjoy!

Serves 2.
