1 Health candy bar
1/4 cup milk
2-1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
1 teaspoon fudge topping
Freeze the Heath bar.
Break the candy into tiny pieces with a knife handle before removing form wrapper.
Combine all of the ingredients in the blender
and blend for 30 seconds on medium speed.
Stop the blender to stir the mixture with a spoon; repeat until well mixed.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass.
Your homemade blizzard may not be as thick as its commercial counterpart. If you would like a thicker treat, after pouring the mixture into your cup, simply place it in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes or until it reaches the desired consistency.
VARIATIONS: Try substituting different candies.
