Ingredients
Scale
- 6 Oreo cookies, plus extra for garnish
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- ½ cup whole milk (or any milk of your choice)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Whipped cream (for topping)
- Chocolate syrup (optional, for drizzling)
- Crushed Oreos or mini Oreos (for garnish)
Ingredient Highlights
- Oreo Cookies: The star of the recipe, Oreos add a chocolatey crunch that makes the milkshake irresistible.
- Vanilla Ice Cream: A rich and creamy base that balances the cookies’ flavor. Use premium ice cream for the best results.
- Whole Milk: Whole milk adds creaminess, but you can substitute it with almond, oat, or coconut milk for a dairy-free option.
- Vanilla Extract: Optional but enhances the overall flavor of the milkshake, making it more aromatic.
- Whipped Cream: A classic topping that adds a light, airy finish to this indulgent drink.
Instructions
Prepare the Ingredients:
- Crush the Oreos: Set aside 1-2 Oreos for garnish, and roughly break the remaining cookies into smaller pieces for blending. This helps them blend more easily into the milkshake.
- Chill the Glasses: To keep your milkshake cold for longer, place your serving glasses in the freezer for a few minutes while you prepare the shake.
Blend the Milkshake:
- Combine the Ingredients: In a blender, add the vanilla ice cream, whole milk, crushed Oreos, and vanilla extract (if using).
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a thicker milkshake, add more ice cream; for a thinner consistency, add more milk.
- Check the Consistency: Taste and adjust the sweetness or thickness as needed by adding more Oreos, ice cream, or milk.
Assemble and Serve:
- Decorate the Glasses: If desired, drizzle chocolate syrup on the inside of the glasses for a fun and decorative touch.
- Pour the Milkshake: Pour the blended milkshake into the chilled glasses.
- Add the Toppings: Top each milkshake with whipped cream, crushed Oreos, and an additional whole Oreo for garnish.
- Serve Immediately: Serve the milkshake with a straw and spoon for maximum enjoyment.
