The combination of peanut butter and chocolate is always a winner! Top it with some whipped cream, some shaved chocolate and a little bit more peanut butter and you have the best milkshake in your hands!

You can make this chocolate milkshake recipe healthy by using chocolate frozen yogurt instead of chocolate ice cream. You can also use non fat or dairy free milk as well. Leave the hot fudge sauce out and use a teaspoon of cocoa powder instead.
