Ingredients You’ll Need

Key Ingredients and What They Do

  • 8 Oreo cookies: Give the shake its signature cookie-and-cream taste.
  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream: Adds body and creaminess.
  • 1 cup whole milk: Helps everything blend smoothly.
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional): Deepens the flavor.

How to Make an Oreo Milkshake (Step-by-Step)

Step 1: Crush the Cookies

Place the Oreos in a sealed bag and gently crush them with a rolling pin. You want chunks, not dust, for texture.

Step 2: Blend the Base

Add milk to the blender first, then the ice cream and crushed cookies. This order helps the blender work smoothly.

Step 3: Adjust Thickness and Flavor

Blend until creamy. If the shake feels too thick, add more milk a little at a time. For extra sweetness, blend in one more Oreo or a drizzle of syrup.

Step 4: Serve with Toppings

Pour into chilled glasses. Then add whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and maybe one more cookie on top. Serve right away before it melts.

Expert Tips for the Creamiest Milkshake

Start with less milk and add more as you blend. This helps you control the texture. Also, chill your glasses before pouring so the milkshake stays cold longer.

Variations and Flavor Twists

Different Ice Cream Flavors

Use chocolate or cookies-and-cream ice cream for a richer version. Strawberry adds a fun fruity twist.

Peanut Butter or Nutty Versions

Add a tablespoon of peanut butter or a spoonful of Nutella for extra depth and nuttiness.

Try Golden Oreos with caramel syrup or mint Oreos with a drop of peppermint extract for a holiday twist.

Grown-Up (Adult) Version

Mix in a splash of whipped cream vodka for a playful adult take just remember, this version is for adults only.

Substitutions and Ingredient Swaps

You can use any type of milk almond, oat, or low-fat. Other chocolate sandwich cookies also work if you don’t have Oreos.
