Thick & Frosty Milkshake

Yield: 1 serving

Ingredients:

1) 1 cup low-fat milk

2) 1/4 cup instant pudding

3) 1/4 cup powdered milk mix

4) 3 ice cubes

Optional: 1/2 to 1 cup (frozen) fruit chunks

Preparation:

1) Place all ingredients in a blender.

2) Blend until smooth.

This thick and tasty milkshake is a healthful alternative to ones made with ice cream. The instant pudding adds a nice thick texture and the ice cubes make it frosty and refreshing. I like to make these for my kids—an enjoyable way to boost their protein and calcium intake. By varying the flavor of the pudding (vanilla, lemon, chocolate), you can create numerous variations. You can also add fruit (preferably frozen chunks) for extra nutritional value.

Note: The shake thickens upon standing; you can add more (or less) pudding mix, depending on how thick you like your shakes. If there are pieces of ice cubes remaining in the shake, worry not—they’ll just keep the beverage cool.

  1. There was also Borden Milk Shake and Great Shakes. I remember just trying "thick and Frosty." I read somewhere that "freeze" was a fad of food at the time, and suggested that this was a freeze dried product = ice cream.
