It won’t be long now until the final weeks of summer 2024 are upon us, but not everyone is ready to say goodbye to the hottest season of the year. While the warm temperatures can sometimes be unbearable, fast food joints and restaurants know how to draw guests in with sweet and cool ice cream treats. Before August wraps up, one of America’s most popular chicken shops has announced that an old fan favorite – the Chick-fil-A Banana Pudding Milkshake – will return to the menu for the first time in 13 years.
As Fox5 Atlanta notes, the delicious drink debuted in 2011, combining real bananas with vanilla wafer cookie crumbles. Since leaving the menu, foodies have requested the return of the Banana Pudding Milkshake, and Chick-fil-A has finally obliged. When sharing the news, the restaurant revealed a brand-new item, Banana Frosted Coffee, will be available on Aug. 26th too. The latter drink includes cold-brew coffee, signature Icedream dessert, bananas and vanilla wafer cookie crumbles.
Since we don’t know how long either beverage will be available in-store, we’ve uncovered a copycat recipe that’s just as satisfying as the original.
Copycat Chick-fil-A Banana Pudding Milkshake Recipe
This recipe from Savings Lifestyle will make two 12 oz servings. Half it when you’re flying solo and craving something sweet, or double the ingredients for a larger crowd! The blog notes that a small size from the fast food joint is at least 780 calories, meanwhile making it at home is notably lower at 515.
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 3 cups fat-free vanilla ice cream
- 1 tbsp banana cream instant pudding mix
- ½ cup milk
- 8 vanilla wafer cookies, crushed into crumbs
- 1 can whipped cream (optional)
- 2 maraschino cherries (optional)
Instructions:
- Place all ingredients in your blender.
- Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Top with whipped cream and a cherry if desired, though note this will increase the calories listed above.
- Enjoy!
