Tips & Warnings

• If you like the flavor of coffee, vary the recipe a bit by adding a spoonful of chilled coffee or mocha.
• If you're concerned about the fat content in your milkshake, substitute low-fat or 1-percent milk for half-and-half. The milkshake won't be as thick and rich, but it will still be delicious.
• If you have a strong chocolate craving, add a squeeze or two of chocolate syrup.
