Note
The mixture will thicken as it stands. If the shake becomes too thick before serving, you can thin it with a small amount of additional skim milk.
For a diabetic-friendly version, ensure you use a sugar-free frozen dairy dessert (ice milk) and sugar-free pudding mix.
If you prefer a stronger mint flavor, you can increase the peppermint extract to 1/2 teaspoon, but start with less as it is potent.
The grated chocolate serves as a garnish. Ensure the chocolate is grated finely so it distributes evenly over the shake.
