This Oreo milkshake recipe serves two people. If you want to make an Oreo milkshake for just one person, you can cut the recipe in half or double it for four people.

RECIPE VARIATIONS

While nothing beats a traditional Oreo milkshake, it might be enjoyable to switch up some ingredients to make variants.

• For a chocolaty treat, replace the vanilla ice cream with chocolate ice cream.
• If you want to enhance the Oreo factor, you can also use cookies and cream ice cream. However, you may need to adjust the amount of Oreo cookies you put in.
• Consider using strawberry ice cream which matches the flavor of the cookies.
• Use Chocolate Oreos for a shake that has more chocolate flavor.
• Make a blondie version that uses Golden Oreos and switch the chocolate syrup for caramel.
• Try mint Oreos with mint chocolate chip ice cream and chocolate mint syrup for an extra cool and refreshing milkshake experience.
• Add 2 or 3 tablespoons of smooth peanut butter for nutty richness.

TIPS IN MAKING OREO MILKSHAKE

• This recipe may be made with any type of milk, from full fat to skimmed, although using whole milk tastes the creamiest. After all, it is a milkshake.
• Use cold milk and cold glasses to maintain the cold temperature of the milkshake.
• Break the Oreos into two to four pieces, so that a standard blender will work efficiently.
• The key to a thicker milkshake is to either increase the amount of ice cream or decrease the amount of milk. If you want a larger serving size, you can also add additional ice cream, if you’re splitting this between two people. Simply add a splash of milk if it’s too thick and you’d like it a little smoother.
• Add some whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate sauce or hot fudge, extra cookies, or even all three on top as garnish!
• If you don’t have a blender or milkshake machine. Place the ice cream in a mixing bowl and let it soften a little. Add milk and use a potato masher or whisk to combine. Mix in the cookie crumbs and chocolate syrup and serve. Alternatively, use a light bottle with cap, put all ingredients and shake it vigorously until all ingredients are combined.

HOW TO SERVE

Sip into this homemade Oreo milkshake during the summer. Additionally, enjoy this milkshake together with your breakfast or evening snacks, or as a delicious dessert to end your meal.

HOW TO STORE

If you happen to have leftover milkshake (which I doubt), you can pour the mixture into ice pop molds instead of throwing it. Place in a refrigerator and enjoy whenever you want. Alternatively, you can place in ice cube trays and blend them once more with additional milk when you’re ready for another sweet treat.

Chocolate milkshakes can absolutely be prepared in advance. Once it has been blended, you can keep it in the freezer for up to a month. When it’s time to eat it, let it defrost a little on the counter and stir when you can; otherwise, you might need to re-blend it.

This quick and simple Oreo milkshake recipe is ideal for a fun, sweet dessert or snack, whether you’re binge-watching your favorite show and have a craving for something sweet.
