When I was a kid, I used to beg my parents to take me to the Baskin Robbins at our local mall. Oreo was always my favorite ice cream topping so I always asked for their Oreo milkshakes. You only need 3 ingredients and 5 minutes so this might be one of the easiest recipes on my blog.

🍨 About This Recipe
I love Baskin Robbins. I used to live near one so I'm super familiar with all their menu items. Their Oreo milkshake was definitely my go-to.
Milkshakes are one of the easiest recipes you can make at home. I'd say 90% of milkshakes have just three ingredients: milk, vanilla cream, and the main flavoring ingredient, which is Oreos in this case.
🍪 Crumbs Vs. Cookies
There are two main options for incorporating Oreos into your milkshake. You can either use their cookies or baking crumbs.
For my recipe, I like using the cookies because they come with the sweetened white filling, so you don't need to add any additional sugar or sweetener. If you use the baking crumbs, you'll need to add some simple syrup or honey to sweeten it.
🥛 Ingredients
You only need three ingredients: Oreo cookies, vanilla ice cream, and milk. For the vanilla ice cream, I recommend using "frozen dessert." If you're not familiar with what that is, it is basically a type of "ice cream" made with canola oil instead of cream. There is a little bit of cream, but not enough to be considered real ice cream, so companies legally have to label it as "frozen dessert" instead.
It might sound gross, but frozen dessert is actually what most fast food places use. It is much cheaper than regular ice cream, and most customers cannot tell a difference when it's mixed with milk and the other ingredients.
🔪 Instructions
Before starting, chill your blender cup and serving cups in the freezer or fridge for at least 15 minutes. I always do this and my milkshakes stay nice and thick for a long time.
STEP 1: Combine vanilla ice cream, Oreo cookies, and milk in the blender. Blend the ingredients for 15-30 seconds until smooth and creamy. If the blend gets stuck, use your blender's tamper to push the ingredients down. Try to avoid adding milk, otherwise it will get too runny.
When the milkshake is smooth, pour it into a tall glass and enjoy! I like to top mine with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry.
