A cookie butter milkshake is one of the best sweet drinks ever. It’s creamy, full of warm cookie taste, and feels like a big hug in a glass. If you love cookie butter (like Biscoff or Speculoos), this shake is for you. Even if you’ve never tried it, you’ll want to make it right away. Let’s talk about what it is, how to make it, and why everyone loves it.
What Is Cookie Butter?
Cookie butter is a yummy spread made from crushed cookies. The cookies are usually Speculoos or Biscoff—thin, crispy ones with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. They taste sweet and a little spicy.
The cookies get ground up and mixed with oil until it’s smooth like peanut butter, but with no nuts. It’s thick, creamy, and tastes just like eating cookies!
Big stores like Trader Joe’s and Lotus sell jars of it. You can eat it with a spoon, put it on bread, or—best of all—use it in a milkshake.
Why This Milkshake Is So Good
A cookie butter milkshake is extra special. You mix vanilla ice cream, milk, and big scoops of cookie butter. It becomes thick, frothy, and full of cookie flavor.
It’s not too sweet. The spices in the cookie butter make it warm and cozy. You can add more cookies for crunch, chocolate for fun, or coffee for a grown-up taste.
It’s easy to change and always feels like a treat.
What You Need
You don’t need many things to make this at home. Here’s the list:
Ingredients:
- 2–3 big spoons of cookie butter
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- ½ to 1 cup milk (use more for thin, less for thick)
- 2 Biscoff cookies (optional, to mix in)
- Whipped cream (for the top)
- A little melted cookie butter or caramel (optional)
- Crushed cookies (to sprinkle on top)
Want no milk? Use plant ice cream and almond or coconut milk. It still tastes great!
How to Make It
It’s super easy. Just follow these steps:
Step 1: Soften the Ice Cream
Let the ice cream sit out for 5 minutes. It blends better.
Step 2: Blend It Up
Put ice cream, milk, and cookie butter in a blender. Add crushed cookies if you want bits. Blend until smooth.
- Want it thick? Use less milk.
- Want it sippy? Add a little more milk.
Step 3: Taste It
Try a sip. Need more cookie taste? Add another spoon of cookie butter and blend again.
Step 4: Make It Pretty
Pour into a tall glass. Add whipped cream. Drizzle cookie butter or caramel. Sprinkle cookie crumbs.
Serve right away with a straw and spoon—it’s thick!
Fun Ways to Change It
You can make it different every time:
- Chocolate Version:
Add 1 spoon cocoa powder or chocolate syrup. Tastes like spiced hot chocolate. - Coffee Version:
Mix in a small cup of coffee or 1 spoon instant coffee. Like a sweet mocha. - Peanut Butter Mix:
Add 1 spoon peanut butter. Nutty and yummy. - Banana Version:
Add half a frozen banana. Sweet and thick—good for breakfast too. - Oreo Version:
Crush 2–3 Oreos in the blender. Like cookies and cream, but better.
Tips to Make It Perfect
- Use good ice cream. Cheap ones don’t taste as creamy.
- Put your glass in the freezer for 10 minutes first. Keeps the shake cold.
- Don’t blend too long or it gets watery.
- Draw lines of melted cookie butter inside the glass before pouring. Looks cool!
Is It Healthy?
No, it’s not a diet drink. It has ice cream and sugar. But that’s okay!
Enjoy it sometimes, not every day.
Want it lighter?
- Use low-fat milk
- Try frozen yogurt
- Use less cookie butter
It still tastes amazing.
