🥘 Ingredients
Ice cream- You will need some cold vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt for the base of this recipe. You'll want it thawed enough to scoop, but you don't need it to be soft enough that it starts to melt (that would make your milkshake thinner).
Oreos- Chocolate Oreo cookies are ideal, but you can use any flavor variety and still have a delicious drink.
Milk- You'll want some milk to help thin down the milkshake to the right consistency. It's better to make the milkshake a little thicker since it will melt and thin down over time anyway.
Banana- Make sure to freeze a banana before use, as this will help to thicken the drink and keep it cold longer. Fresh bananas can be used, but frozen ones work best.

🔪 Instructions
Check out how to make Banana Oreo Milkshake with these simple step-by-step instructions:
Chop your frozen banana and add it to your blender.
Toss in the Oreo cookies. You'll want the cookies and filling for this.
Scoop and add the vanilla ice cream to your blender. Add in the ½ cup of milk.
Add the lid and turn the blender on High until smooth. If needed, add in a little more milk to thin down the consistency. Remember to scrape down the sides of the blender.

🧾 Substitutions
Milk. If you want, you can use nondairy milk, low fat milk, or even half and half instead.
Ice cream. If you don't have vanilla ice cream you can use dairy free ice cream (like coconut based ice cream) or even vanilla frozen yogurt. I often use vanilla frozen yogurt instead of ice cream.
📖 Variations
Oreo variations. There are countless different flavor variations of Oreo cookies and you can use any of them! (The green mint ones would be great for St. Patricks Day).
🍴 Recipe Tips
Adjust consistency
You can adjust the consistency of this milkshake to your own liking by adding in more ice (if you want it thicker) or more milk (if you want it thinner).
More Chocolate
If you really want to enhance the chocolate flavor, you can use chocolate milk instead of regular milk. This makes the milkshake feel a lot richer in taste, but it's honestly great either way. Even using chocolate ice cream can help give you a richer taste.
👩🏻🍳 Scaling
You can double or triple this milkshake recipe as needed (assuming you can fit that much in your blender). This recipe only makes enough for one tall glass (about 16 ounces), so if you're looking to make enough for a family, doubling or tripling will cut down on a lot of time by just blending it all together.
💭 FAQs
To make an oreo milkshake, all you have to do is add milk, ice cream, and oreo cookies (in that order) to a blender before pulsing until the consistency you want.
You can use any milk that you may have on hand, from whole milk to low-fat milk or even dairy-free options too.
The ratio of ice cream to milk is what determines the consistency of the drink. Add your milk slowly until it's as thick or as thin as you want it to be.
