How to Make Cookies Cream Frappuccino – Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Glass

• Drizzle chocolate syrup along the insides of your glass. This adds flavor and makes your drink look café-style.

2. Blend the Frappuccino

• In a blender, combine:
  • 2 cups of ice cubes
  • 1 cup of milk (whole or any alternative)
  • 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 4 Oreo cookies (broken into chunks)
• Blend on high until smooth and creamy. You want a thick, frosty consistency.

3. Taste and Adjust

• Give it a quick taste. If you want it sweeter, add more sugar. Too thick? Add a splash of milk.

4. Pour and Top

• Pour the blended mixture into the prepared glass.
• Top with whipped cream (if using) and drizzle more chocolate syrup.
• Crumble an extra Oreo over the whipped cream for that final touch.

Serving and Decoration

How to Serve Cookies Cream Frappuccino

• Classic Café Style: Serve in a tall glass with a straw and whipped cream on top.
• Cookie Crumble Finish: Sprinkle crushed Oreos on the whipped cream for extra crunch.
• Chocolate Lover’s Dream: Swirl extra chocolate syrup inside the glass and on top for a double-chocolate treat.

This frappuccino is best enjoyed right away while it’s icy cold and thick.

Storing Cookies Cream Frappuccino

This drink is best enjoyed fresh, but if you need to save it for a little later, here’s what you can do:

• Short-Term: Keep it in the fridge for up to 30 minutes. Stir well before drinking, as the ice may separate.
• Freezing: Pour leftovers into an ice cube tray. When ready to drink, blend the cubes with a splash of milk to bring it back to life.

Tip: Avoid leaving it out for too long—melting ice can water it down.

Tips and Tricks for Success

• Blend in Stages: Start blending on low speed to break up the ice, then increase to high for a smooth, thick texture.
• Adjust Consistency: If the frappuccino is too thick, add a splash of milk. If it’s too thin, blend in a few more ice cubes.
• Crush Cookies Beforehand: Break the Oreos into smaller chunks before adding them to the blender. This helps them mix evenly without over-blending into crumbs.
• Sweetness Check: Taste before pouring. Everyone’s sweetness preference is different, so adjust the sugar to your liking.
• Cold Ingredients Matter: Use cold milk and chilled syrup for the best icy result. Warm ingredients can melt the ice quickly.
• Decorate Last: Add whipped cream and cookie crumbles just before serving to keep the topping light and fresh.
