Extreme Mudslide Milkshake

Do you remember the 80’s? Were you even born in the 80’s?  Wait, don’t answer that….I just dated myself, didn’t I? Well, way back in the 80’s creamy blender drinks with crazy names were all the rage! If you were a bartender back in the day this drink is going to confuse you. I named it Extreme Mudslide Milkshake, but it is actually…..

known as a Screaming Orgasm. Why, I have no idea. I did not name the drinks, I just served them…..and enjoyed them after work!!

Fast forward 20 years and that is about the time that I started turning cocktails into cocktail cakes. I was selling them at craft shows in Iowa and didn’t think that naming the cake Screaming O was going to go over very well…..so I created the Extreme Mudslide Cocktail Cake instead. It worked for the cake, so I figure it will work for the drink as well. 😉

As many of you know, I just moved from Iowa to Arizona and everything I own is still packed in boxes! I managed to find my blender, blue backdrop and a white foam board…and the necessary alcohol, but I had to buy the wine glasses at the grocery store, LOL. It’s a tad bit HOT here, so ice cream was in order for my very first recipe in my new home!!

This rich, thick, and delicious cocktail/dessert is super simple to make! Place the ice cream into the blender…then pour the liqueurs over the ice cream…..

There was a random nail sticking out of the wall so I felt the need to hang a cutting board on it. 😉 Anyhoo, blend to combine. Add a cup of ice cubes and continue blending until smooth. Swirl chocolate syrup around the inside of your glass/glasses…..

My eyes were bigger than my brain when I picked out these wine glasses…..they hold 18 ounces!!! Soooo, I would suggest using one big glass with two straws or two smaller {more appropriate} sized glasses. This drink is not meant for one person, trust me on this one! It’s crazy delicious, but also very sweet. I made it half way through and had to quit, LOL

Top with whipped cream and drizzle with chocolate syrup…..

Nope, couldn’t find the decorative straws…only the bendy kind. 😉

Note: Baileys is the dominant flavor in this drink. If you are not a huge fan, cut the amount in half and it will be more subtle.

One way or another I will be back to regular scheduling starting September 1st. I may have to retake all of the photos when I find my props, but I will be posting new recipes again!

Enjoy!!
