- To make it extra creamy, consider using full-fat milk or even half-and-half.
- For added flavor, you can toss in a pinch of salt, a dash of vanilla extract, or a handful of chocolate chips.
- Blend the ingredients in a high-speed blender to ensure a smooth, lump-free consistency.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
- Garnish with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, or sprinkles to make it extra special.
