The better quality chocolate and ice cream that you use, the better your milkshake will taste.
Makes 2 milkshakes.
Ingredients
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 ounces chopped, good-quality bittersweet chocolate
2 cups good-quality chocolate ice cream
1/3 cup whole milk
Directions
Heat 1/2 cup heavy cream in a saucepan over medium, stirring often until hot, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, pour cream over 4 ounces chopped chocolate. Let stand 1 minute; whisk until smooth to make a rich chocolate ganache.
Process 2 cups chocolate ice cream, 1/3 cup whole milk and 3 tablespoons of the chocolate ganache in a blender until smooth.
