Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cups diced Fuji and Granny Smith apples
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider
  • 1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 28 ounces vanilla ice cream
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candy
  • 10 shortbread cookies

Directions

  1. Place the butter and apples over medium heat in a heavy-bottomed skillet. Cook until the apples are tender, about 5 minutes. Deglaze with the apple cider and immediately add the brown sugar and cinnamon. Cook until the apples are soft, an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside to cool to room temperature.

  2. Add the ice cream, milk, half of the crushed peppermint candy and 4 shortbread cookies to a blender, along with the cooled apples. Blend until smooth. Pour the contents into 6 tall milkshake glasses and top each with more peppermint candy and a shortbread cookie.
