Vanilla Slushie
Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Add the frozen vanilla ice cream, milk, vanilla extract, and ice cubes into the blender.
- Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth, thick, and frosty, about 30-40 seconds. You should see a creamy, slushy consistency emerge.
- Pause the blender briefly to check the texture; if it’s too thick, you can add a splash more milk and blend again for a few seconds.
- Once blended to your desired smooth and icy texture, turn off the blender.
- Pour the vanilla slushie into glasses, spooning any remaining mixture for those who love extra creamy bits.
- Serve immediately with a straw or a garnish if desired, and enjoy the refreshing, smooth texture of this simple vanilla treat.
Hi, I’m Lily Hayes, the cook, writer, and heart behind Loving This Process. This blog is built on a simple idea that food is not just about the final dish, but about everything that happens while you’re making it. The thinking, the tasting, the adjusting, the learning, and the quiet moments in between. Food has been a constant presence in my life, not as something flashy or perfect, but as something deeply grounding. Cooking has always felt like a process worth savoring, even when it’s messy, slow, or imperfect.
