Dulce de Leche Milkshake

I love a good milkshake, and this dulce de leche milkshake is so decadent! I blended vanilla ice cream, dulce de leche, and milk to create this caramelly shake, and I topped the whole thing with whipped cream and caramel sauce. It turned out so good and was so quick and easy to make!

Dulce de Leche Shake

The best thing about most milkshake recipes is that they are super easy to make–and this dulce de leche shake is no exception! All you need are 4 simple ingredients, a blender, and an appetite.

Dulce de leche adds a deep, caramelized sweetness that’s richer and smoother than regular caramel sauce, making every sip of this shake extra luxurious. This creamy dulce de leche milkshake recipe is also super to customize with chocolate chips, espresso, or extra caramel for different flavors.

Notes

*Use a high-quality vanilla ice cream for the best results. You can also use a non-dairy ice cream, if you like.

**You can use any milk you like in this recipe, but I prefer whole milk for the creamiest shake.

***Use store-bought or homemade dulce de leche. If you’re making it yourself, it’s as simple as gently simmering sweetened condensed milk until golden and thick.

Tips:

• If your dulce de leche is thin and pourable, you can use it to drizzle in the glass instead of caramel sauce.

• Nutritional information does not include optional ingredients.

Storage: While I highly recommend enjoying your dulce de leche milkshake immediately after making it, you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week. Let the milkshake thaw on the counter for about 20 minutes before enjoying.
