No matter how much chocolate milk I buy, it will all be consumed that same night. I have conducted studies. This is a true fact. And it’s not me drinking it, it’s Kyle. Sometimes I buy an individual pints. Sometimes 2 or 3. And once I bought a half gallon and yes, the next morning it was laying on top of the trash in the kitchen, completely empty.
I don’t know if he even knows what he is doing past a certain time. He goes to sleep much later than I do, and makes his trip from the couch to the bed around 4am, and usually stops by the fridge for a sweet snack at this time. If you have ever seen Step Brothers, this is what I imagine it looking like in my kitchen every night. But no matter how much chocolate milk I buy, he drinks it around this time.
So I was standing in front of the chocolate milk section at the store, and wondered if I should buy a gallon of chocolate milk. But I couldn’t do it. It would almost be cruel because he may just drink it all in one night, and what a tummy ache I imagine that would cause! So I decided to grab another individual portion. As I continued roaming the aisles at the grocery store I looked at the ice cream labels for inspiration. Sometimes there are unique flavors that I want to create at home. I saw a ‘hot cocoa’ ice cream that sounded interesting, but I usually prefer a cold chocolate milk over hot cocoa. Then I remembered I had chocolate milk in my cart. Then I had an idea.
I used my chocolate milk in the custard of a basic ice cream recipe, to create a delicious and creamy chocolate milk ice cream. I did add some cocoa powder to increase the chocolate flavor, but with the heavy cream and sugar, it was subtle and rich just like chocolate milk.
