Okay, let’s be real—sometimes you just need a treat that feels a little bit extra, right? If you’re anything like me, you’re always on the lookout for that perfect, indulgent dessert that you can whip up at home without needing a degree in pastry arts.
Enter the Kinder Bueno Milkshake. It is creamy, hazelnutty, and honestly, it’s a total game-changer. Whether you’re having a quiet night in or just need a serious pick-me-up, this is the one.
What You’ll Need
Don’t overcomplicate it! You only need a handful of things to make this magic happen:
3 generous scoops of top-tier chocolate or hazelnut ice cream (honestly, this is the secret weapon here—it makes everything so much creamier).
60 ml of full-fat milk (no skimping here, keep it nice and rich).
15 ml (that’s just a standard tablespoon) of smooth Nutella to really dial up that hazelnut goodness.
For the fun part (the toppings!):
1 bar of Kinder Bueno, broken into pieces.
A mountain of freshly whipped cream.
15 ml of melted Nutella (give it a quick blast in the microwave so it’s nice and drizzly).
A pinch of crushed hazelnuts or biscuits to give it that fancy crunch.
How to Make It
1 Get fancy with the glass: Before you start blending, take your warm melted Nutella and drizzle it down the inside of your glass. It looks professional, and it’s super satisfying to watch the shake marble through it later.
2 The blend: Toss your gelato, milk, and that spoonful of Nutella into the blender. Give it a quick whiz on medium-low. You want it combined, not turned into soup, so keep an eye on it!
3 Pour it up: Gently pour that dreamy mixture into your prepared glass.
4 Load it up: Now, pile on the whipped cream—the more, the merrier, honestly.
5 The finishing touch: Stick those pieces of Kinder Bueno right into the cream, do a final drizzle of that warm Nutella, and scatter your crushed nuts or biscuits over the top.
6 Sip and enjoy: Grab a glass straw and get stuck in while it’s still perfectly cold and thick.
A Couple of My Go-To Tips
Freeze the glass: Honestly, just pop your glass in the freezer for about 15 minutes before you start. It makes the whole experience so much better.
Play with the texture: If you’re feeling a bit wild, you can add an extra 15–30 ml of milk if you prefer a lighter shake, or just add one more scoop of gelato if you want it extra thick and decadent.
Quality is queen: Since we’re keeping the ingredient list short, treat yourself to the best gelato you can find. It really makes the difference between a “good” milkshake and a “wow” one.
Seriously, this recipe is a one-person party. Give it a go and let me know if you’re as obsessed as I am! What other chocolate-bar-inspired treats should I try to transform next? Let me know in the comments!
