Thick and rich, this milkshake recipe is smooth and full of great cookies n cream flavors. Plus, it’s blended with Baileys and vodka for a fun adult treat!
This milkshake recipe is one that will delight just about anyone! Made with vanilla ice cream, oreo cookies, Baileys and vanilla vodka, it’s smooth and rich, with a deliciously addicting taste!
Y’all. I’ve made a LOT of recipes over the years, and this one is in my top 5! The flavors are just so smooth, velvety… I mean, in a way, this milkshake recipe could be dangerous. It doesn’t have that strong alcohol taste, so you can just keep sipping!
I made these for my family a while back, and they got a huge thumbs up! In fact, my brother was just asking me to make them again.
Now, I love a great strong drink… in fact, my absolute favorite go-to drink is whiskey or bourbon on the rocks. But sometimes, I just need to combine a dessert, and a drink. Killing two birds with one stone!
If you have little ones, you know they’ll want to try some of this milkshake… so below the recipe, I’ve included a non-alcoholic version. All you do is replace the alcohol with milk 🙂
HOW TO MAKE A MILKSHAKE AT HOME
Those thick, rich, and ultra creamy milkshakes from restaurants and diners are fabulous, but they’re also really easy to make at home! All you need is ice cream, liquid, any flavorings (like the Oreos here), and a great blender.
CAN I MAKE THIS MILKSHAKE RECIPE WITHOUT BAILEYS
Yes, absolutely! I love the flavor of Baileys (see what I mean?), but if you’d rather, Kahlua is another great option. You could also play around with a combination of vanilla and chocolate vodkas. Plus, there’s a non-alcoholic version listed in the recipe!
For a garnish, I kept things simple and used a Hershey’s cookies n creme bar, and it works SO well!! The chocolate rim and sprinkles are optional, but really, why not… you deserve some extra chocolate!
Doesn’t that look like just the thing you need after a long hard day at work?! I’ve had a hectic day, and I could sure use one!
The next time you’re ready for a cocktail, try this milkshake recipe and have your drink for dessert!

Can this be made in advance and taken to a party for dessert? Would I just make and put in a pitcher in the fridge?
The Chunky Chef says
I don’t know if that would work well, since it’ll be all melted. But I haven’t tested any make ahead options for this recipe, so if you decide to try it, I’d love to know how it works out 🙂

Absolutely love your recipes. This boozy milkshake I’m catering my son and his fiancé and he’s picking up your Irish stew and want to make this like ice cream since I won’t be there to fix as drink. Think this in a loaf pan will freeze and be good? Thank you for all your rest recipes
Raisa Montes De Oca says
Thanks for the recipe
Gemma Hoynes says
Delicious! I added a little extra baileys and vanilla vodka to make it extra boozy. I would comment that although the recipe states 4 servings, it would have easily made double that for us (we don’t have a strong sweet tooth in this house maybe that’s why).
Thanks for the recipe!
