Ingredients

Shamrock Shake

2 cups mint chocolate chip ice cream
1 oz. cream cheese room temperature
1/2 - 1 cup milk any kind (depending on how frozen your ice cream is)
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract

Whipped Cream

1/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon white sugar

Instructions

First, make whipped cream topping.
Pour heavy cream into a large cold mixing bowl.
Using an electric hand mixer, mix the cream on medium/high until peaks begin to form.
Add sugar to the whipped cream and continue to mix the cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
Prepare the shake. Place ice cream, cream cheese, 1/2 cup of milk, and peppermint extract into a high speed blender.
Blend on medium until all of the ingredients are blended until smooth. If the shake isn't blending add another 1/2 cup of milk to the blender and blend until smooth.
Pour the shake into a cup and top with whipped cream, mini chocolate chips, green sprinkles, and a cherry!
