Drive-thrus are so 2023 – I for one am not getting in my car just to go get a frosty but you know what I will do? Whip out my blender and make a healthy version at home that might I say – tastes better than the original. I know that Wendy’s makes a great frosty but have you ever read the ingredients? Did you know that the solution comes out of a bag and then gets turned in the frosty machine… I don’t even want to think about how infrequently the machine is washed – I digress!
This Copycat Wendy’s Vanilla Frosty is the companion to my Chocolate Frosty recipe and your new favorite drink! Save yourself a trip to the drive through and make this rich and creamy dairy-free version of the classic vanilla frosty that is mind-warpingly delicious and full of whole foods! This texture is next-level amazing! Sweet, smooth, creamy and rich in vanilla and beautiful nutty undertones, this will be your new guilt-free dessert on repeat!
This homemade Wendy’s Frosty recipe is made with simple, wholesome ingredients that make it creamy, sweet, and irresistibly delicious:
Making this copycat Wendy’s Vanilla Frosty is easier than you’d think! Just follow these simple steps:
Pour a can of coconut milk into an ice cube tray and freeze overnight. This is the key to achieving that classic Frosty texture.
Place your serving glass(es) in the fridge or freezer to keep the Frosty cold and creamy when served.
In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen coconut milk cubes, walnuts, vanilla extract, pink salt, and plant milk. Blend until the mixture is silky smooth.
Pour the Frosty into your chilled glass(es) and garnish with extra walnuts or toppings of your choice. Then, grab a spoon and dig in!
I cannot think of a single reason why you wouldn’t fall in love with this recipe! It’s nostalgia in a cup with its creamy body, vanilla notes and cool taste. It’s a much healthier version than the original Wendy’s Frosty and it’s made with all the plant based goodness meaning anyone can enjoy it. The drink is super quick to make it just takes a few seconds of prep and you’re good to go!
