memorial day milkshake

I had a great holiday weekend.  The weather couldn't have been more perfect for outdoor tomfoolery.  I spent all day Saturday with friends on a tree-top adventure in Pennsylvania, climbing, scaling and ziplining.

And Sunday?

Sunday I took a bike trip.  I have something new to cross off!  I completed number three on my list by taking a 15 mile bike trip to a nice park in a nearby town to picnic.

Sunny and hot. 

Found Tiny Tim on the side of the road. 

The bike trip left me sunburned and in need of a mushy-cushy bicycle seat.  Clearly, after one burns so many calories peddling for an extended period of time, a  calorie-filled milkshake was in order.

S'mores Milkshake
1 cup vanilla ice cream
1 cup milk (I used almond milk)
20 mini-marshmallows (plus extra for garnish)
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 graham crackers
pinch of salt
1/4 cup milk chocolate chips

1. Set oven to broil.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
2. Pour marshmallows on lined baking sheet and broil until tops are well-browned.
3. Add ice cream, vanilla, salt and milk to mixer and blend until smooth.  Add toasted marshmallows and graham crackers to ice cream mixture and pulse until incorporated.  
4. Pour into a glass, garnish with crumbled graham crackers and toasted marshmallows.
