Ingredients
  

Boba Base
  • 1 cup quick-cooking black tapioca pearls
  • 4 cups water for boiling
  • 0.25 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
Chocolate Milkshake
  • 4 cups chocolate ice cream slightly softened
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 0.25 cup heavy cream
  • 3 tbsp chocolate syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt
Glass Rim
  • 0.5 cup chocolate frosting or ganache
  • 1.5 cups chocolate malt balls like Maltesers
Epic Toppings
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream whipped to stiff peaks
  • 1 chocolate-covered ice cream bar on a stick
  • 2 chocolate rolled wafer sticks Pirouettes
  • 1 chocolate sandwich cookie Oreo
  • 2 tbsp mini chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting

Equipment

  • High-powered blender
  • Large round fishbowl glass
  • Saucepan
  • Piping bag

Method
 

  1. Boil tapioca pearls in water for 5-7 minutes until soft. Drain and mix immediately with brown sugar and cocoa powder. Let sit at room temperature.
  2. Spread a thick layer of chocolate frosting around the outside rim of a large fishbowl glass.
  3. Press chocolate malt balls into the frosting around the entire rim. Place glass in freezer for 10 minutes to set.
  4. Spoon the prepared syrup-coated boba into the bottom of the chilled glass.
  5. In a blender, combine chocolate ice cream, whole milk, heavy cream, chocolate syrup, vanilla, and salt. Blend until thick and smooth.
  6. Pour the thick milkshake into the glass over the boba, filling to just below the rim.
  7. Pipe or spoon a massive mountain of stiff-peak whipped cream on top of the milkshake.
  8. Insert the unwrapped ice cream bar into the center. Add the wafer sticks and Oreo cookie to the whipped cream.
  9. Dust heavily with cocoa powder, sprinkle with mini chocolate chips, and drizzle with extra chocolate syrup. Serve immediately.

Notes

Ensure your whipped cream is very stiff, otherwise the heavy toppings will cause it to collapse.
