Cookies and Cream Milkshake: Oreo Shake in 60 Seconds (2026)
A cookies and cream milkshake blends crushed Oreos into vanilla ice cream and cold milk for a thick, indulgent shake. This recipe costs about 80 to 100 rupees at home versus 300 rupees at a cafe. Four Oreo cookies, three scoops of ice cream, and 60 seconds in a portable blender. That is all you need.

Ingredients & Quantities
- 300ml whole milk (cold)
- 150g vanilla ice cream (3 small scoops)
- 40g Oreo cookies (4 cookies, roughly crushed)
- 20g whipped cream (aerosol, for topping)
- 100g ice cubes (for thickness)
Important: Crush the Oreos by hand into small pieces before adding. Whole cookies jam portable blender blades.
Step-by-Step Recipe
- Pour cold milk first. Add 300ml whole milk to your blender bottle. Cold milk is essential for the thick shake texture.
- Add softened ice cream. Scoop 150g vanilla ice cream into the milk. Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before this step.
- Crush the Oreos. Break 4 Oreo cookies into small pieces by hand. Aim for pea-sized chunks. Drop them into the blender.
- Add ice cubes. Drop in 100g of small ice cubes. Larger cubes take too long for portable motors to crush.
- Blend for 45 to 60 seconds. Stop when you see a speckled grey-white colour with tiny Oreo bits throughout.
- Top with whipped cream. Spray 20g of aerosol whipped cream on top after pouring into a glass.

Shop NowThe sugar-fat combination in Oreo-type cookies triggers rapid dopamine release in the brain, activating the same reward pathways as addictive substances. The cream filling alone activates the nucleus accumbens more than plain sugar. (Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine, 2013)
3 Tasty Variations
| Variation | Key Changes | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| Low-Calorie | Use almond milk (300ml) and frozen banana (100g) instead of ice cream. Reduce Oreos to 20g (2 cookies). | 250 kcal |
| High-Protein | Add 30g whey protein powder. Use Greek yogurt (100g) instead of half the ice cream. | 520 kcal |
| Kids Version | Use less milk (200ml) and more ice cream (200g). Add 10g mini marshmallows on top. | 550 kcal |
3 Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Overloading ice without liquid. Adding 100g ice without pouring milk first burns portable blender motors. Always start with liquid.
- Using whole uncrushed Oreos. Whole cookies jam blades and create gritty texture. Break them into small pieces by hand before blending.
- Blending too long beyond 90 seconds. Extended blending overheats battery-powered blenders and melts the ice cream into a watery shake. Keep it under 60 seconds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use any brand of cookies instead of Oreo?
Yes. Any chocolate sandwich cookie works. Bourbon biscuits, Hide and Seek, or Parle Milano all blend well. Oreos give the most classic cookies and cream flavour because of the vanilla cream filling.
How do I make this thicker?
Use more ice cream (200g) and less milk (200ml). Or freeze the milk into cubes and use those instead of regular ice. Frozen banana also adds thickness without diluting flavour.
Is cookies and cream milkshake very unhealthy?
At 460 calories with 57g sugar, it is a treat, not a daily drink. Enjoy it once or twice a week. The low-calorie variation brings it down to 250 calories if you want it more often.
Can I use dark chocolate cookies?
Yes. Dark chocolate cookies give a deeper, less sweet flavour. The shake will look darker and taste more bitter. Add an extra 10g of sugar or honey to balance it.
How long does this milkshake stay good?
Drink within 20 minutes. The ice melts fast and the Oreo crumbs get soggy after 30 minutes. In the fridge, it lasts 2 hours but loses all foam and thickness.
