Salted Speculoos Malts Recipe | Epicurious

These salted speculoos malts combine everything that’s good into one milkshake: Vanilla ice cream, milk, malt powder, salt, and speculoos cookie butter are blended together to create a rich and creamy milkshake that pays tribute to retro malts while adding a modern, playful spin. The speculoos cookie butter is the star of this milkshake. Often known by the brand name Biscoff, the peanut-butter-like paste is made from lightly spiced speculoos cookies with Belgian roots that give the milkshake a subtle brown sugar and cinnamon flavor. While the base of the milkshake is blended with it, smearing the inside of the glass with additional cookie butter creates a striking camo-like pattern and drives home the speculoos taste. The malted milk powder provides a unique buttery richness that gives the shakes a nostalgic flavor while a generous amount of salt balances out their sweetness. For the best presentation (and to help ensure your milkshakes stay frozen until the very last sip), chill your glasses in the freezer for at least 10 minutes before serving. And for an added pop of texture and additional whimsy, garnish with whipped cream and crushed speculoos cookies.
