This thick, spoonable shake comes together in seconds flat, with cold whole milk and real vanilla extract blended until the whole thing turns velvety and pourable-but-thick, exactly how a proper milkshake should be. Pour it into chilled glasses straight from the blender and you've got that classic soda-fountain texture without any fuss. It's an easy one to make your own, too — swap in your favorite mix-ins or toppings and adjust to taste. Because the base leans on simple, straightforward ingredients rather than anything syrupy or candy-coated, it's a solid pick to keep in your added sugar–conscious rotation. Serve it up right away while it's at its coldest and creamiest for the best sip.

Add the vanilla ice cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract to a blender. Blend on medium speed until smooth and thick, about 20–30 seconds — the shake should be pourable but still hold a slight mound when spooned.
Divide between two chilled glasses. Top with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry, if using, and serve immediately.
