If you like to dunk your Oreos in milk then you'll love this milkshake that blends them right in (along with some chocolate syrup and vanilla ice cream).

ingredients
18 Oreo or Hydrox chocolate sandwich cookies, divided
1/2 cup milk
3 cups vanilla ice cream, divided
1/4 cup chocolate syrup
directions
Reserve one cookie for each glass. Place the remaining cookies in a blender along with the milk, 2 cups of the ice cream, and the chocolate syrup.
Process the milk shake until smooth.
Divide the Oreo milkshake between 8-ounce glasses. Top each with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and garnish with the reserved cookies. Serve immediately.
recipe tips
Let the ice cream soften slightly before blending.
To easily crush cookies for garnish, place them in a zip-top bag and use a rolling pin to gently break them into smaller pieces.
If the shake is too thick to pour, add milk a tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
Freeze the glasses before serving to keep the milkshake cold longer.
For an adult version, add a shot of Baileys, Kahlua, or vanilla vodka.
Experiment with the ratio of cookies to ice cream to find your perfect amount of flavor and texture.
Use high-quality vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup for the best taste.
To make a lighter version, opt for low-fat milk and ice cream or try using frozen yogurt.
Cleaning the blender immediately after use will make it easier to wash.
common recipe questions
What kind of milk works best for an Oreo Cookie Milk Shake?
Whole milk is preferred for its richness, but any type of milk, including non-dairy alternatives like almond or soy milk, can be used.
Can I use a different type of ice cream?
Yes, while vanilla ice cream is classic, feel free to experiment with flavors like chocolate for a deeper chocolate taste or cookies and cream for an extra cookie boost.
What if I don't have a blender?
Without a blender, you can crush the cookies into fine pieces, mix them with a little milk to soften, and then stir into softened ice cream and chocolate syrup. The texture will be chunkier but still delicious.
Is there a substitute for chocolate syrup?
Yes, if you don't have chocolate syrup, you can melt chocolate chips with a bit of milk or cream to create a homemade syrup. Cocoa powder mixed with sugar and a little water or milk can also work in a pinch.
How can I make a healthier version of this milkshake?
For a healthier version, use low-fat or non-dairy ice cream, a milk alternative, and reduce the amount of chocolate syrup. You can also use less sugary Oreo or Hydrox cookie alternatives.
How do I make the milkshake thicker?
For a thicker milkshake, add more ice cream or use less milk. Chilling the glasses beforehand can also help maintain a thicker consistency for longer.
How do I prevent the milkshake from being too sweet?
To reduce sweetness, choose a less sweet chocolate syrup, or reduce its quantity. You can also select a vanilla ice cream with less sugar or a non-dairy alternative that's less sweet.
Can I add additional toppings?
Add whipped cream, a drizzle of caramel or extra chocolate syrup, a sprinkle of cookie crumbs, or even a cherry on top.

A basic blizzard style recipe but always a favorite!
Why do people review things that have not even tried them? 5 stars for something you will try later? Not helpful. Also, there are 80 calories in an oreo...so 80x18=1440 calories. Not sure where 500 calories are coming from.
Actually, in a regular oreo cookie there are approximately 53 calories (from the official Mondelez website - which owns the brand). 53x18=954 which you divide by the four servings = 238.5. Add in the ice cream and milk and chocolate syrup... All of our official calculations are done using the USDA database. I also agree that people shouldn't put a rating on a recipe they haven't tried. But really, it's a milkshake, how can you go wrong with this recipe?
