Not sure what was running through my mind here, but I wanted this to be the most extra milkshake we would attempt to make at home. We're all about eating healthy and wholesome, but sometimes it's okay to splurge, right?
I randomly got a bag of cotton candy at work and was really worried about what to do with it. I was thinking of ways I could use cotton candy in our cooking. I didn't want to just eat an entire bag of cotton candy -- I had to do something with it! I googled this a bit and saw that many people use cotton candy as toppers for cupcakes and cookies and cocktails. And then I thought, "why not top a milkshake?" It seemed to me that the flavors would combine perfectly -- creamy milkshakes and sugary cotton candy.
I had this vision of what I wanted this milkshake to look like and taste like. And I'm so pleased to say that it worked out! I never thought that cotton candy would taste so good with a milkshake. And that the texture would supplement it so well.
This a sugar heart attack waiting to happen. I'm not much of a sweets person -- that's definitely more Ryan than me. And I was definitely done after drinking one of these. But it was so pretty and I'm glad we have photos of these sugary milkshakes so that I can keep staring at them.
Go ahead and try this out if you're feeling bold. These milkshakes definitely do not disappoint. Oh, and don't forget the sprinkles!
