Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oreo cookies
- 2 tbsps (30 ml) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (240 ml) milk (whole or dairy-free)
- 2 tbsps (30 ml) chocolate syrup
- ½ tsp (2.5 ml) vanilla extract
- 2 cups (480 ml) ice cubes
- whipped cream (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Blender: Thoroughly clean the blender to create a hygienic foundation for the frappuccino.
- Combine Base: Pour cold whole milk and crushed ice into the blender, creating a chilled foundation for the drink.
- Blend Ingredients: Add granulated sugar, pure vanilla extract, and break Oreo cookies into fragments, then pulse on high speed for 45-60 seconds until achieving a silky, uniform texture.
- Adjust Consistency: Evaluate the mixture’s thickness, incorporating additional milk if a more fluid blend is preferred.
- Decorate Glass: Artfully trace chocolate syrup in a spiraling pattern along the interior of a tall serving glass.
- Serve and Embellish: Carefully transfer the frappuccino into the prepared glass, topping with a lavish swirl of whipped cream that peaks slightly above the rim.
- Final Garnish: Sprinkle crumbled Oreo cookie over the whipped cream or place a whole cookie as a decorative finishing touch.
Notes
- Blender Prep: Thoroughly clean and sanitize the blender to prevent any unwanted flavors or bacterial contamination.
- Cookie Crushing Technique: Break Oreo cookies into smaller, uniform pieces to ensure even distribution and optimal flavor throughout the frappuccino.
- Texture Troubleshooting: Adjust milk quantity for desired thickness – add more for a lighter drink or less for a thicker, more indulgent consistency.
- Presentation Pro Tip: Create a stunning visual impact by drizzling chocolate syrup inside the glass and topping with carefully crumbled or whole Oreo cookie for maximum aesthetic appeal.
