Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients, ensuring the vanilla ice cream is slightly softened for easy blending and the milk is chilled to keep the milkshake cool.
- Combine in Blender: Add full-fat milk, vanilla ice cream, cocoa powder, chocolate syrup, and a handful of ice cubes into a blender.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and free of lumps, achieving a thick and uniform texture.

Notes
- Use high-quality cocoa powder and chocolate syrup for the richest flavor.

- Adjust sweetness gradually to avoid making the milkshake overly sweet.
- Blend just until smooth to prevent warming the milkshake.
- Serve immediately as the texture changes quickly once the ice cream melts.
