Ingredients
Scale
- 12 Oreos: Regular or Double Stuf both work great! I sometimes use different Oreo flavors like mint or golden for fun variations.
- 4 cups vanilla ice cream: The better quality your ice cream, the better your milkshake. I prefer using a premium brand that’s rich and creamy.
- 1/2 cup milk: Whole milk gives the richest results, but I’ve used 2% or even almond milk when that’s what I had on hand.
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract: This small amount makes a big difference in depth of flavor.
- Hot fudge for topping: Store-bought works fine, but homemade is amazing if you have the time!
- Whipped cream for topping: Fresh whipped cream is best, but the canned stuff works in a pinch.
- Crushed Oreos for topping: I always set aside a couple of cookies specifically for the garnish.
Instructions
- I start by gathering all my ingredients and making sure my ice cream is slightly softened (about 5 minutes out of the freezer) for easier blending.
- Next, I add all the main ingredients – Oreos, vanilla ice cream, milk, and vanilla extract – to my blender. I leave the toppings (hot fudge, whipped cream, and extra crushed Oreos) aside for now.
- Then I blend everything together using a pulse method. I don’t blend continuously because I prefer having some Oreo chunks in my milkshake. Usually, 5-7 pulses gets the perfect consistency.
- If I want a thinner milkshake, I add a splash more milk and pulse once or twice more. For a thicker shake, I add a bit more ice cream.
- After that, I pour the milkshake into two large glasses, leaving some room at the top for the whipped cream.
- Finally, I top each glass with a generous swirl of whipped cream, a drizzle of hot fudge, and a sprinkle of crushed Oreos. Sometimes I even stick half an Oreo on the rim of the glass for extra flair!
