Tips & Substitutions
For a creamier texture, ensure the vanilla ice milk is softened adequately before mixing. If you prefer a richer flavor, consider substituting regular peanut butter for crunchy peanut butter. You can also add chopped nuts or mini chocolate chips for added texture. For a lower-calorie version, use a sugar-free whipped topping.
