The phrase epic gets overused in cooking these days but today I am feeling it is justified
this my friends is an epic smore milkshake I hope you will agree it is looking like a
right stonker indeed we do not use the word stonker enough maybe we should just push that
out there maybe we will call it the stonker milkshake I do not know we are going off on
a tangent but there is a place called the black tap in new York currently in trend making
these amazing milkshakes and Claire emailed me with the ingredients to make a smore one
so that is exactly what I am going to try and do right now.
It is cheaper than a flight to new York so lets get cracking, the first thing we have
going is a pan of chocolate melting in a pan over simmering water so we just let that melt
up.
With it being a smore milkshake we also have some graham crackers if you cannot get hold
of these use digestive biscuits some chocolate to make a smore which we will do in a minute
this is a bowl of bashed up graham crackers and also some marshmallows which we are going
to toast, right now.
You have seen me make indoor smores before and if you have a gas hob it is just like
doing them outdoors using bamboo skewers or twigs all you do is get your gas hob put it
on a low flame and it does not take long to catch just dab it in like so here we go you
can see it is charring quite quickly here, little rotate and it will catch on fire, so
take it away safely blow it and put to one side.
Now if you do not have a gas hob use a microwave make your smore put it in the microwave for
ten seconds you will not get the char effect but you will get a cool marshmallow it is
massive but will shrink back.
Our chocolate is melted up lets give it a stir it is looking good baby, lets just drink
that it will be much easier this big old glass will be our final serving device so what I
will do is take it and stick it into that melted chocolate maybe twist it to get some
funny angle trying to get as much even coverage as I can, along the glass oh wow I am loving
the roughness of it, as you can see quite high at the back but it bends round to a nice
glossy area of chocolate which we now coat in our graham crackers, so all I am going
to do you can do this in a manner of ways I am putting down a board I am willing to
get messy and sprinkling the graham cracker crumbs onto that chocolate just while it is
tacky so it grips to it, there we go then plenty of graham cracker crumbs on there you
could put graham cracker crumbs in the middle but the contents of the milkshake itself will
have it in too.
Lets do that.
Alright so in goes the ice cream to our blender about 3 or 4 scoops of that alright in goes
the milk, oh yeah, a good sprinkle of the graham cracker crumbs leftover lets whizz
it up.
Alright so in goes the milkshake I have chilled the glass and the chocolate is nice and set
now oh yes, this is some whipped cream that I did earlier, going to get a big old stack
of that on there I am sticking the marshmallows in now I love how the milkshake is trying
to escape from the glass.
This is a smore I made earlier, oh my gosh, some more graham cracker crumbs on top, and
of course a drizzle of chocolate sauce all up and down oh my gosh.
So I am not quite sure how we go about drinking this but just as I said that is a pretty epic
looking milkshake.
This is one of the naughtiest milkshakes I have ever tried you can eat it and drink it
the milkshake itself is so good anyway thanks Claire for this recipe suggestion if you make
it do a ten mile run after ok that is the deal any other recipe suggestion you have
