Mardi Gras Milkshakes // Coffee Milkshake w. Beignets
Ingredients
Beignets:
Cafe Du Monde Beignet Mix
7 oz water
1-2 cups of flour
Oil for frying
powdered sugar for sprinkling
Whipped Cream:
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 Tbsp granulated sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
Milkshakes:
4 cups vanilla ice cream
⅓ cup milk
6 oz of double-strength brewed coffee, room temp or cold
handful of coffee beans (I used 6, you can use more if you like the taste of coffee)
chocolate sauce (optional)
hot fudge (not warmed) on the edge of glass as garnish
powdered sugar as garnish
coffee beans as garnish
ground coffee as garnish
optional: 1-2 ounces bourbon per milkshake, this recipe makes 3, so 3-6 ounces bourbon to make them boozy!
Instructions
Start by brewing your coffee and leave it out to cool or put it in the fridge to cool.
Next, make your beignets, follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Then make your whipped cream. Combine all 3 whipped cream ingredients from above into your chilled stand mixer bowl and whip on medium-low until peaks form.
Next, garnish your glasses. Add hot fudge to rim, roll it in powdered sugar, tap off the excess, and then roll in coffee beans.
Next, make your milkshake. Combine your vanilla ice cream, milk, coffee, and coffee beans in your blender and mix until smooth.
If you want to add chocolate sauce inside the glass, add it now, then pour your milkshake into the glass, top with whipped cream, add your straw and noisemaker, thread two beignets on a skewer and add to the milkshake, then add a few dashes of ground coffee to the top as garnish.
Enjoy!
