Instructions
Prepare Raspberry Sauce
- In a small saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens (about 8-10 minutes).
- Once thickened, remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
Blend Freakshake Base
- In a blender, blend the vanilla ice cream, whole milk, and 1/2 cup raspberry sauce until smooth and creamy.
Assemble the Freakshakes
- Drizzle raspberry jam along the inside of each glass.
- Pour the milkshake mixture into the prepared glasses, filling them about 3/4 full.
- In a separate bowl, whip the cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- Spoon a generous dollop of whipped cream on top of each freakshake.
- Sprinkle crushed graham crackers over the whipped cream and place a mini cheesecake slice on top.
- Garnish with fresh raspberries and some graham cracker crumbs.
- Serve immediately with a straw and a spoon.
Notes
Use frozen raspberries if fresh ones are out of season, and consider adding a splash of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
