Over-the-Top Donut Milkshakes
Well, you knew it was going to happen! I make donuts and I make milkshakes, so why not make an over-the-top, absolutely decadent, and delicious Over-the-Top Donut Milkshake? Yes, that’s a milkshake blended with donuts. Then topped with two full-sized donuts, donut holes, and mini donuts!
Please do not eat one by yourself, but instead, just share one. With a group. With a group of many, many people.
Oh, and sprinkles! You can’t forget the frosting and sprinkles when it comes to a donut. There’s no such thing as too many sprinkles!
I made this Donut Milkshake using my Ninja blender which I use for all my milkshakes, cocktails, and even batters for baking! I can’t say enough good things about the blender! It’s not super cheap and won’t fall apart like some $20-30 brands like Hamilton Beach, but it also doesn’t cost an arm and a leg like a Vitamix.
So, if you’re in need of a new blender, I definitely recommend the Ninja blender. My only bit of advice is that even though the pitcher states that it is dishwasher safe, be sure to wash it by hand. Our first one cracked in the dishwasher, but our replacement pitcher has been going strong for 2-3 years now.
