Strawberry Shortcake Milkshake Recipe
Fall is one of my favorite seasons. It’s so beautiful. The weather is perfect for being out and enjoying it.
But summer has fall outranked when it comes to food. (Although, cinnamon and apples….mmmm…..) Summer is full of crisp salads, fresh Georgia peaches, lemonade, ice cream, and sweet strawberries. I think the best way to describe summer foods is fresh. And you can’t get better than that!
This strawberry shortcake milkshake combines two of my favorite summer desserts in to one amazing milkshake. Seriously, this is summer in a glass. Just know, it’s so good and so amazing that you will want to make these all the time! Don’t say I didn’t warn you!
- Strawberry Layer:
- ½ cup chopped fresh strawberries
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup skim milk
- 2 scoops of vanilla frozen yogurt
- Cake Layer:
- 2 scoops of vanilla frozen yogurt
- ½ cup yellow cake mix
- ⅓ cup skim milk
- You will need to blend one layer first and set it in the freezer for a couple of minutes, while you blend the second layer.
- Combine ingredients for the strawberry layer in ablender and blend until smooth.
- Combine ingredients for the cake layer in a blender and pulse until smooth.
- Using a large spoon, layer the two shakes on top of each other.
- Add some whipped cream to the top and enjoy!
What are your favorite summer foods? I seriously think that I could live on these shakes. You know. If someone forced me. 😉

PB Crave Cookie Nookie Peanut Butter Ice Cream Recipe:
1 1/8 cups PB Crave Cookie Nookie peanut butter – yeah that’s right, peanut butter with cookie dough 🙂 (Sold at Walmart, Cost Plus World Market or buy it/find a store near you here)
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter and sugar until smooth. Add the milk and mix until the sugar is dissolved. Stir in the cream and vanilla. Pour into the ice cream mix into the freezer bowl and let thicken 25 minutes in the freezer. Make according to your ice cream maker’s directions. If you would like, add chopped up chocolate peanut butter candies about 5 minutes before it is completed. No ice cream maker? Here is the one I have! We love it! It’s quick and easy (plus, fun!) And it’s on sale for $25.99 on Amazon with free shipping! Score! 🙂
OR do what I did and drizzle some Choco Choco PB Crave on top and add a handful of chocolate peanut butter candies on top. Pure peanut butter heaven.
Yeah. You should probably make some for yourself. 🙂
And luckily for you – I’m giving away a prize pack of PB Crave! Good luck!
Disclosure: I was sent PB Crave free of charge to use in my recipe. But my opinion is 100% true and my own.
