How to Make Thick Shakes With Strawberry Mascarpone Panini

  1. **Prepare the Strawberry Mascarpone Filling:** In a medium bowl, gently combine 8 ounces of mascarpone cheese, 1/2 cup of strawberry jam, 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  2. **Assemble the Panini:** Spread the strawberry mascarpone mixture evenly onto four slices of your favorite bread (about 4 slices of brioche or challah bread). Top with fresh strawberries (about 1 cup, sliced), and drizzle with a tablespoon of balsamic glaze.
  3. **Cook the Panini:** Butter the outside of the bread slices lightly. Heat a large skillet or panini press over medium heat. Cook the panini for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and slightly gooey.
  4. **Make the Vanilla Shake:** Combine 2 cups of vanilla ice cream, 1 cup of milk, and 1/4 cup of vanilla sauce in a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  5. **Serve:** Cut the panini in half diagonally and serve immediately with the thick vanilla shake. Garnish with fresh strawberries if desired.
