Baileys freakshake with many toppings

Freakshakes are basically milkshakes on steroids! These insane mega milkshakes are for special occasions only or perhaps best shared…

Which is why I think Halloween is the perfect occasion to enjoy a freakshake – after all indulgence is the name of the game!

I have given my freakshake grown up delicious twist by adding my favorite creamy liqueur… Baileys! You can leave this out if serving to minors 😉
