Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings 2 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 4 large scoops vanilla ice cream (about 2 cups), preferably full-fat for best texture
  • 6–8 chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos), plus 1–2 extra for garnish
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup cold milk (whole milk for richness; use less for a thicker shake)
  • 1–2 tablespoons chocolate syrup (optional, but boosts chocolate cookie flavor)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for extra depth)
  • Pinch of salt (balances sweetness and enhances flavor)
  • Whipped cream (optional topping)
  • Chocolate shavings or crushed cookies (optional garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Chill your glasses: Pop serving glasses in the freezer for 10 minutes. Cold glasses keep the shake thick longer.
  • Prep the cookies: Break the cookies into chunks with your hands. Leave a few larger pieces if you want crunchy bits in every sip.
  • Add to blender: Add ice cream, 1/3 cup milk, chocolate syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the blender.
  • Top with cookies: Add 6–8 cookie chunks on top. Reserve any extras for garnish.
  • Blend briefly: Pulse 3–5 times, then blend on low just until mostly smooth. Stop as soon as it looks thick and pourable. Over-blending melts it.
  • Adjust thickness: If it’s too thick to pour, add milk 1 tablespoon at a time. If it’s too thin, blend in an extra scoop of ice cream or a few more cookies.
  • Serve: Pour into chilled glasses. Top with whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, and crushed cookies or chocolate shavings.
  • Enjoy right away: Milk shakes are best fresh, while cold and thick.
