Back when I was 14, I had my first job at a bubble tea place at the mall. One of the biggest perks of that job was that we got to make ourselves a free drink every time we worked.
In the beginning, I hated bubble tea, so what I would make myself every day were milkshakes.
Keep in mind, this is a really skinny 14 year old who didn’t know better and never gained weight. I am not advocating this as a lifestyle choice (but if only…)
Ever since I quit, I haven’t really made many milkshakes at home. Which is really weird because what is better than a drink which is pretty much purely blended ice cream? I’m always on board for drinkable desserts, and drinkable desserts involving everyone’s favorite cookie? Swoooon. Because who wants to spend a lot of time in the kitchen to get their sugar fix when it’s such a nice day?
I am so ready for you, summer. With this Oreo milkshake in one hand and my sunscreen in the other. Just the essentials for a hot summer day.
Oreo Milkshake Ingredients
You just need 3 simple ingredients to make this thick Oreo milkshake recipe. All you need is:
- vanilla ice cream
- Oreos
- whole milk
Tips
Don’t have a blender? You can make this just as well in a food processor as well.
For a more creamy texture: change the amount of ice cream that you use. The more ice cream you add, the thicker the mixture will be, resulting in a very creamy Oreo shake. Alternatively, you could decrease the amount of milk you add in.
Variations
Use different ice cream flavors. If you really want a more pronounced Oreo flavor, use a cookies and cream flavor ice cream. I also love using chocolate ice cream in the milkshake mixture for a more chocolatey flavor.
Add in some fruit. I love the fruit and Oreo combo, so adding in some fresh berries will take this cookies and cream milkshake to the next level.

I was never as into milkshakes until I got pregnant. Now, 3 years later, I'm such a milkshake person.
I'm ready for you summer, too! I've never been much of a milkshake fan, but this one does tempt me a little! For sure my husband would love it, so thanks so much for the idea!
I always wonder what the proper ratio of ice cream to milk is for a milkshake, so thank you. This sounds amazing. My hubs is always asking me to make milkshakes for him and he loves oreos, so I will def be giving this a try!! 🙂
