Bobby Flay says, “Crackles of chocolate are better than chips in milkshakes because they fit through the straw. You’re also better off starting with bar chocolate instead of chips because the chocolate is usually of a better quality.”
Placing the chocolate in a small bowl in the microwave is the easiest way to melt this small amount. Use a really ripe banana for the best flavor.
1/2 cup 2 percent or whole milk
1 large very ripe banana, broken into large pieces
1 2/3 cups packed ice cream
1 ounce milk chocolate bar, melted
In a blender, combine the milk and banana until combined but still slightly chunky. Add the ice cream and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly pour the melted chocolate through the feed tube on the lid of the blender and blend for 5 seconds. Serve immediately.
