Ingredients
For the Milkshake
- 10 Oreo cookies (plus extra for topping)
- 2 cups chocolate ice cream
- 1/2 cup whole milk
How to Make the Oreo Chocolate Milkshake
- Add the Oreo cookies to a blender.
- Pulse a few times until the cookies break into small chunks.
- Add the chocolate ice cream and milk to the blender.
- Blend on medium speed for 20 to 30 seconds.
- Check the texture. It should be thick and pourable, not runny.
- Add a splash more milk if the blades are struggling to move.
- Blend for another 10 seconds until fully smooth and creamy.
- Pour the milkshake into two tall glasses.
Pro Tip
Don’t blend the cookies too long before adding the ice cream, or they turn to dust and you lose that chunky cookie bite. Pulse them just enough to break into small pieces, then add the rest.
Serving & Storage
Top each glass with whipped cream, crushed Oreos, and a drizzle of chocolate syrup for the full effect. This milkshake is best served immediately while it’s cold and thick.
If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 day. The texture won’t be as smooth after freezing, so let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes and stir well before drinking. This milkshake doesn’t hold up well in the fridge, so freezing is the better option for storage.
FAQs
Can I use regular ice cream instead of chocolate ice cream? Yes, vanilla ice cream works fine and still tastes great with the Oreos.
Can I make this milkshake dairy-free? Swap in dairy-free ice cream and a plant-based milk like oat or almond milk for the same results.
Why is my milkshake too thin? You likely added too much milk. Use less milk next time or add an extra scoop of ice cream to thicken it back up.
