Ingredients

Scale

Frosty Base

  • ⅓ cup Milk
  • 2 tablespoons Nesquik Powder (chocolate flavor)
  • 2 cups Vanilla Ice Cream
  • 1 tablespoon Malted Milk Powder

Mix-ins and Toppings

  • 1/3 cup chopped Heath bar, divided
  • 2 teaspoons Instant Espresso Powder

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Frosty Base: Add the milk, Nesquik powder, vanilla ice cream, and malted milk powder to a blender. Blend until the mixture becomes thick and smooth, creating the classic Frosty base.
  2. Add Mix-ins: Add 1/4 cup of the chopped Heath bar along with the 2 teaspoons of instant espresso powder to the blender. Blend briefly for about 15 seconds to evenly incorporate these flavor-enhancing ingredients.
  3. Serve: Pour the Twisted Frosty mixture equally between two glasses. Sprinkle the remaining chopped Heath bar pieces on top for a crunchy texture and visual appeal.
  4. Experiment with Variations: To create other Twisted Frosty flavors such as Oreo, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, or M&M’s, replace the espresso powder and Heath bar with your preferred toppings. For cookie dough, use edible dough chopped into small chunks.

Notes

  • You can customize the recipe with different mix-ins like Oreo pieces, chocolate chip cookie dough, or M&M’s.
  • Using instant espresso powder gives a subtle coffee flavor that complements the chocolate and malt.
  • Ensure the ice cream is slightly softened for easier blending.
  • For a thicker Frosty, reduce the milk slightly or add more ice cream.
  • Edible cookie dough can be found in many grocery stores if opting for the cookie dough variant.
