A Great Malted

• 3 scoops (about 8 ounces) vanilla ice cream, slightly softened (aficionados claim the ice cream should be vanilla regardless of the flavor of the syrup)
• 1/2 cup 1 percent, 2 percent or whole milk
• 1/4 cup chocolate, strawberry or any flavored syrup
• 2 tablespoons malted-milk powder, or to taste
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch nutmeg or whipped cream, optional

1. In a blender, pulse all the ingredients on low speed just until smooth, about 20 seconds.
2. (Don't overblend -- the shake will become too soupy.)
3. Pour the shake into a soda glass and top with nutmeg or whipped cream, if desired.
