Creamy Thick Jello Shakes


I don't even remember where my husband and I got the idea to add jello to milkshakes but OMG they come out SO good. Super thick and creamy. These are great during the summer when you want something cool and sweet and fruity yet thick and creamy.

You can of course use regular Jello, ice cream and milk if you aren't watching you calories or sugar intake but I have listed the ingredients I use which make this very Diabetic friendly. The amounts are approximates as it will depend on how thick you want it. Keep in mind it will continue to thicken up a bit after you are done making it.


JELLO SHAKES

1/2 Cup of No-Sugar-Added low fat vanilla ice cream - approx.
1 Cup prepared sugar free Jello (flavor of your choice) - approx.
1 Cup skim milk - approx.

In a blender place milk then the Jello and then the ice cream making sure to secure the top. Pulse a few times to make sure it starts to break down and then blend on high until well blended. If it is too thin add more ice cream and if it is too thick just keep adding splashes of milk to thin it out.

Pour in a glass, add a straw and enjoy!!!
