(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Chocolate Ice Cream: Rich and creamy base for the shake. You can substitute with dairy-free ice cream if needed.
Milk: To achieve the desired thickness; use any type of milk or a non-dairy alternative.
Nutella: The star ingredient that imparts a decadent hazelnut flavor.

In a blender, combine the chocolate ice cream, milk, Nutella, and chocolate syrup.

Tips for Making Chocolate Hazelnut Dream Shake

Freeze Your Glass: For an extra frosty experience, freeze your glass for about 10 minutes before serving.
Experiment with Flavors: Try adding a pinch of sea salt or a splash of vanilla extract to elevate the flavor of your chocolate shake.
Thicker Shake: Use less milk for a thicker shake; alternatively, add a scoop of protein powder for a nutritional boost.

Make-Ahead Instructions

Prepare the ingredients in advance and store them in the refrigerator for easy blending later.
If you want a frozen version, blend the mixture and pour it into an airtight container and freeze. When ready to enjoy, blend again with a splash of milk.

Storing Leftovers

Leftover shake can be stored in the fridge in a sealed container for up to 24 hours, although it’s best enjoyed fresh for the smoothest texture.

Freezing Chocolate Hazelnut Dream Shake

Freeze the shake in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
When ready to serve, let thaw for a few minutes, then blend again with a bit more milk for freshness.

Reheating Chocolate Hazelnut Dream Shake

This shake is best served cold, so reheating is not recommended.
If the shake does become too thick after freezing, simply blend it again with a little milk.
