Ingredients
Scale
Frappe Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups milk (whole or 2%)
- 1 1/2 cups ice cubes
- 6 chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos)
- 1/4 cup vanilla ice cream
- 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
- Whipped cream
- Crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a blender, add the milk, ice cubes, chocolate sandwich cookies, vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup (if using), and vanilla extract. This combination creates the base for your creamy frappe.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes smooth and creamy. This usually takes about 30 to 60 seconds depending on your blender’s power. Make sure there are no cookie chunks remaining unless you prefer some texture.
- Adjust Consistency: Taste the frappe and decide if you want it thicker or thinner. If you prefer it thicker, add more ice cubes and blend again; for a thinner drink, add a splash more milk and blend briefly.
- Serve and Garnish: Pour the frappe into a tall glass. Generously top it with whipped cream and sprinkle additional crushed cookies on top for extra flavor and visual appeal.
- Enjoy Immediately: Serve your Cookies and Cream Frappe right away with a straw or spoon, while it’s cold and frosty for the best taste experience.
Notes
- For a stronger chocolate flavor, substitute the milk with chocolate milk or add a teaspoon of cocoa powder before blending.
- To make this frappe dairy-free, use plant-based milk alternatives like almond or oat milk, and choose dairy-free ice cream.
- You can add a shot of espresso to introduce a coffeehouse-style twist and additional flavor complexity.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more chocolate syrup or use less depending on your preference.
