Ingredients
Serves 2 Shakes- 1 ½ cup strawberry ice cream
- 1-cup milk
- 3 oz. Champagne or sparkling wine
- 4 tables strawberry syrup
- 4 tablespoons marshmallow cream
- 8 strawberries
- 4 sprigs mint
Chantilly
- ½ cup whipping cream
- 1-tablespoon powder sugar
Chocolate Strawberries:
- ½ cup dark Chocolate for dipping
- ½ cup white chocolate for dipping
- 4 large strawberries with stem.
- ½ bottle Champagne rose
- 2 each red roses
Directions
Preparation: Chocolate Strawberries
Melt the white chocolate in a water bath or microwave. Dip the stem strawberries ¾ high into the chocolate and gently display them on a non-stick pan, let them cool off.
Melt the dark chocolate using a water bath or microwave and dip the strawberries by angling them on both sides. Put them back on a non-stick pam and let cool.
Chantilly: Using an electric mixer beat the cream and sugar together until a nice, almost firm consistency. Transfer the whipped cream in pastry bag with a star tip. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Milkshake:
Using a blender, transfer the strawberry ice cream into the cup; add the milk, 6 strawberries, 1 tablespoon of strawberry syrup.
Blend until creamy and very smooth. At the last moment add 3 oz. of Champagne
Decorate attractively the glasses with strawberry syrup and marshmallow cream.
Divide the shake mix between the 2 glasses. Decorate the top generously with whip cream, drizzle with some remaining melted dark chocolate. Garnish with a strawberry and mint leaves. I do recommend serving the milkshakes with a straw and an ice teaspoon!
Serve with the remaining Champagne using 2 flutes, the chocolate stem strawberries followed by the roses.
