Burgerville Chocolate Hazelnut milkshakes:)

I have an addiction to these little babies! They are way too expensive so I decided to make my own. Vanilla ice cream(fill blender 2/3 full) ...Rice dream would work in a pinch Lisa! Add a big, huge squeeze of chocolate syrup( I use Hersey's but making your own is easy enough too) add 2 tablespoons(or 2 splashes in my case) of hazelnut flavored Torani syrup( found next to coffee in store) a small hand full of hazelnuts(optional, still tastes great without the actual nuts) a big splash( probably about 3/4 cup-1cup ) milk ,or rice milk Lisa, blend away! This might be great with the rice milk because all you taste is the awesome choco-hazelnut yumminess!! Sorry ...this is not a friendly treat for all you sugar avoiders...nor is it low cal :( But I promise it is cheaper than Burgerville and way delicious!!!!) For us Robert Grossnickle family members this makes about two adult size, super human shakes(probably about 1000 calories each but who's counting?) or 4 kid size shakes ,but with some of you guys this will treat your whole family:) I have made 5 blenders full thus far and still have enough supplies to make at least 5 more and the total cost for supplies was about $16( 5gallon ice cream-$5.99, choco-syrup $3.99, hazelnut syrup $3.99...small battle and nuts are about $6.49 per pound... but free from grandma(if you are lucky) , those puppies are $3.79 a piece for a small one at the restaurant...very cost effective in my book! ENJOY!!!!

Yummy that sounds delish. I'm not a big fan of rice ice cream but for some reason it tastes better if you add applesauce to a shake. I'll have to try this one. Thanks for the tips!

mmmm, that does sound very delicious. I like that math, too, it really shows what a good deal it is!
