Creamy, chocolatey Nutella Coffee Shake! Easy blended drink with cold brew, Nutella, milk, and vanilla. A delicious, refreshing treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cold brew coffee (or strong brewed coffee, chilled)
- 2 tablespoons Nutella
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy, your preference!)
- 1/4 cup heavy cream (optional, for extra richness)
- 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup (optional, for extra chocolatey flavor)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup ice cubes (or more, depending on desired thickness)
- Whipped cream, for topping (optional)
- Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder, for garnish (optional)
- A pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Combine Coffee and Nutella: In a blender, pour in your cold brew coffee (or chilled strong brewed coffee). Add the Nutella to the blender.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the coffee and Nutella on medium speed until the Nutella is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth (about 30-60 seconds). Scrape down the sides if needed.
- Add Milk: Add the milk to the blender.
- Add Heavy Cream (Optional): If using, add the heavy cream.
- Chocolate Syrup (Optional): If using, drizzle in the chocolate syrup.
- Vanilla Extract: Add the vanilla extract.
- A Pinch of Sea Salt: Add a pinch of sea salt.
- Add the Ice: Add the ice cubes to the blender. Start with 1/2 cup and add more if you want a thicker shake.
- Blend Until Smooth and Thick: Blend on high speed until the shake is smooth and thick (about 1-2 minutes). Add more ice if needed.
- Check the Consistency: Stop the blender and check the consistency. If it’s too thick, add a little more milk. If it’s too thin, add a few more ice cubes and blend again.
- Taste Test: Taste and adjust flavors to your liking. Add more Nutella or chocolate syrup for sweetness, or more cold brew for a stronger coffee flavor.
- Pour into a Glass: Pour the shake into a tall glass.
- Add Whipped Cream (Optional): If using, add a generous dollop of whipped cream on top.
- Garnish (Optional): Sprinkle with chocolate shavings or cocoa powder. Drizzle a little extra chocolate syrup on top.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Nutella coffee shake immediately!
Notes
- Make it Vegan: Use non-dairy milk, vegan Nutella alternatives, and coconut whipped cream.
- Add a Shot of Espresso: For an extra caffeine kick, add a shot of espresso to the blender.
- Peanut Butter Nutella Shake: Add a tablespoon of peanut butter for a delicious twist.
- Mint Chocolate Nutella Shake: Add a few drops of peppermint extract for a refreshing flavor.
- Caramel Nutella Shake: Drizzle caramel sauce on top for a sweet and salty treat.
- Shake is too thick: Add a little more milk until you reach your desired consistency.
- Shake is too thin: Add a few more ice cubes and blend again.
- Not sweet enough: Add more Nutella or chocolate syrup.
- Not enough coffee flavor: Add a splash more cold brew or a shot of espresso.
- While this shake is best enjoyed immediately, you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Keep in mind that the texture may change slightly as the ice melts.
