Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some helpful suggestions to ensure your Oreo milkshake turns out perfectly every time:

• For an extra chocolatey flavor, try using double-stuffed Oreos!
• Experiment with different ice cream flavors—mint chocolate chip or cookies and cream can add a fun twist.
• If you want to make it a bit healthier, consider using low-fat ice cream or almond milk.
• Don’t forget to chill your glasses beforehand for that extra frosty experience!

How to Serve

This Oreo milkshake is best enjoyed fresh, but there are plenty of fun ways to serve it:

• Pair it with a slice of your favorite cake for a delightful dessert duo.
• Serve it alongside a plate of creamy garlic pasta for a fun dinner and dessert combo.
• Garnish with chocolate syrup or sprinkles for a festive touch.
• Make it a party treat by serving in mason jars with colorful straws!

Make Ahead and Storage

While this milkshake is best enjoyed fresh, you can prepare some elements ahead of time:

• Crush the Oreos and store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
• Pre-measure your ice cream and milk, so you can blend it up quickly when the craving strikes.
• Unfortunately, milkshakes don’t store well, so it’s best to enjoy them right after making!
