Well, I can’t tell you HOW I got the “secret ingredient”, but it’s one of those things where you kind of say to yourself, “Now why didn’t I think of that”? Coffee creamer! The powdered kind. That’s it–simple I know! I grew up on these things–a must have at the mall–and trying to make them at home just wasn’t quite right….try this. You may need to fiddle with the amounts some. When I make this recipe the blender is topped off – about 1/2 inch from the rim, but I don’t really measure anything when I make it–i just throw stuff in until it tastes right.
