Peanut Butter Pretzel Chocolate Malt Milkshake

To kick off National Ice Cream Month and the first day of my vacation, I celebrated with a milkshake.  Nothing cools off a hot summer day better than ice cream.  This shake has all the flavors I love: peanut butter, chocolate, malt and pretzels, all wrapped into one creamy, refreshing drink. It is a great combination of sweet and salty. The dipped rim shouldn't be skipped as this is where all the salty flavors are. I used Snyder Peanut Butter Pretzel Sandwiches when making mine. Malted Milk Powder brings back the flavors of my childhood.  It can be found in the grocery store near the chocolate milk powder mix ins. This may look like a bit of work, but only takes about 10 minutes to put it all together.  

Peanut Butter Pretzel Chocolate Malt Milkshake

Serves 4

1/4 cup of peanut butter

1 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla

1-2 tablespoons malted milk powder

1/4 cup chocolate syrup

4-5 scoops vanilla ice cream

Whipped cream for topping

1/4  cup peanut butter pretzel sandwiches, crushed

Rim four glasses with peanut butter and dip the rims in the crushed peanut butter pretzel sandwiches.

Set aside.   Add peanut butter, milk, vanilla, malted milk powder and chocolate syrup into the blender first, ending with the ice cream.  Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.

Pour into rimmed glasses and top with whipped cream.  

Extra crushed peanut butter sandwiches can be stirred in right before serving (optional)
