Print Recipe

A quick and easy milkshake that captures the cozy flavors of carrot cake with spices, cream cheese frosting, and shredded carrots for a creamy, indulgent treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup shredded fresh carrots
  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream
  • 1 cup milk (whole milk preferred, almond or oat milk as substitutes)
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese frosting
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4–5 ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash and peel 1 medium carrot, then shred finely using a grater or food processor (about 5 minutes).
  2. Add 2 cups vanilla ice cream, 1 cup milk, and shredded carrots into a blender.
  3. Add 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger (if using), 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Blend on low speed gradually increasing to high for 1 to 2 minutes until smooth and creamy with slight thickness.
  5. Add 1/4 cup cream cheese frosting and pulse the blender a few times to swirl it through without fully mixing.
  6. Adjust consistency by adding more milk if too thick or ice cubes/more ice cream if too thin, then blend again.
  7. Taste and adjust sweetness or spices as desired.
  8. Pour into tall glasses, garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dollop of cream cheese frosting, and serve immediately.

Notes

Use fresh shredded carrots for best texture and flavor. Pulse the blender after adding cream cheese frosting to keep swirls visible. Adjust thickness by adding milk or ice cream. For dairy-free, use coconut milk ice cream and vegan cream cheese frosting. Chill glasses before serving for extra coolness.
