Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups
  • Tall glass or milkshake cup
  • Spoon or straw
  • Ice cream scoop

Ingredients
  

  • 6 Oreo cookies
  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • Whipped cream for topping
  • Extra crushed Oreos or chocolate syrup optional garnish

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prep Your Ingredients

  • Grab your Oreos and break them in half. This helps the blender process them more evenly.
  • Let your vanilla ice cream sit out for 2–3 minutes to soften slightly—this makes blending smoother and quicker.
  • Measure out your milk and vanilla extract so they’re ready to go.
  • Pro Tip: Using slightly softened ice cream prevents over-blending and keeps your shake thick and creamy.

Step 2: Add to Blender

  • Place the 6 halved Oreos into the blender first. This ensures they blend smoothly and don’t just float on top.
  • Add the 2 cups of softened vanilla ice cream right on top of the Oreos.
  • Pour in ½ cup of milk and the optional teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  • Pro Tip: If your blender has a hard time catching everything at once, pulse it a few times first before going full speed.

Step 3: Blend It Up

  • Start blending on a low setting for about 10 seconds to break up the cookies.
  • Increase to medium-high and blend for 20–30 seconds, or until smooth and creamy.
  • Check the consistency—if it’s too thick, add a splash more milk and blend again briefly.
  • Pro Tip: Don’t over-blend! Too much blending can make the shake runny and melt the ice cream too much.

Step 4: Serve and Garnish

  • Pour the milkshake into your favorite tall glass or jar.
  • Top with a generous swirl of whipped cream.
  • Sprinkle on crushed Oreo bits or drizzle with chocolate syrup for extra flair.
  • Pop in a straw (or a long spoon if it’s thick!) and enjoy immediately.
  • Pro Tip: For an extra-cold shake, chill your glass in the freezer for 10 minutes before pouring—it helps the shake stay thick longer.
