For chocolate milkshakes that we make at our home, we use chocolate whey, plain coconut water, spinach, banana and/or strawberries, and ice. Very good and healthy! ;) YUM! Sometimes instead of chocolate we use Nutella, or peanut butter. Nutella taste just like Chocolate.
Or you could use vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup, milk and ice. This would be far too filling for me though.
Wow Nikki that is very ambitious of you but the recipe sounds very nutritious . I am glad to see that you are keeping the health of your residents in mind and that they are willing to drink something like this or do you not tell them what is in it. Where do you get the chocolate whey?? I would like to try this myself Thank you so much
I co-own and operate a small assisted living home in Pittsfield, NH (U.S.A.). We consistently seek ways to improve upon our senior activity program, providing a diversified balance of a purposeful and enjoyable time of recreation, crafting, exercise and others to reach all of our residents. I must say, it's been a challenge. This past October I began researching options online and came across your site, subscribing for a year to see what you were all about. Let me tell you, you have not disappointed! Your site is a priceless resource that we are extremely thankful for. We find a significant increase in resident participation and look forward to the new ideas that each month brings. Our residents love the changes!

1/2 gallon chocolate milk
14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
8 oz tub of cool whip
Whisk together the two milks
Fold in cool whip
Using an ice cream machine follow the manufacture's directions to chill.
It takes about 30-40 minutes and then serve immediately.
Perhaps not a traditional chocolate shake but they were delicious and easy enough for all to help.
