Ranks compare each pair with 20,000 random ingredient pairs on CompKitchen. How we score pairs

What each ingredient does

Skim milk
Forms the liquid base that lets the pudding mix and ice milk blend smooth.
Sugar-free chocolate instant pudding mix
Its starch thickens the milk as it blends, giving the shake body and chocolate flavor.
Vanilla ice milk
Adds cold, creamy body and sweetness that makes the shake smooth and thick.

The step that matters

Thin with additional milk. Instant pudding starch thickens quickly once blended with liquid, so the shake can become too stiff. Adding milk gradually lets you reach the desired consistency.
