Time for a treat!

All of my friends know that I am a cake fiend! Cupcakes will definitely do when I can’t get a slice of cake! So imagine my excitement, when I happened across a recipe for a CupShake.

It’s a cupcake, milkshake!

I know, I know…it’s kind of indulgent. After all, we are all supposed to be eating healthier and watching our intake of “bad” things like carbs and fat. But, every now and then, a little treat won’t hurt, right?

Here’s the super simple recipe:


Cupcake Milkshake
- makes 1 milkshake -
By Cakespy; Inspired by CupShakes.

Ingredients:
1 cupcake (flavor of choice)
1 2-scoop ice cream cone (either sugar or wafer cones are fine)
1/4 cup heavy cream

Directions:
1. Place cupcake and ice cream cone in blender. Pour 1/4 cup heavy cream directly on top.
2. Blend until fully incorporated. If the shake is thicker than you'd like, add 1/4 cup more heavy cream and blend again, just until incorporated.
3. Serve immediately. If desired, garnish with whipped cream and sprinkles.
To read about the origins of this idea, check out the link to the original post on Serious Eats. There are also a few more pix there…just in case you need more convincing! (LOL!)

If now is not a good time for a sweet indulgence, save this until the time is right.

Enjoy!
