Method

The amount of chocolate ice cream and Oreo you need depends on how strong a taste of these two ingredients you want. The quantities I have used were rich enough, but not too overpowering. This quantity is enough to make two servings.

In a bowl, add milk, chocolate ice cream, but leave two scoops for the topping. Add crushed Oreos and mix lightly with a spoon or whisk. In the serving glass, pour about a teaspoon or more of chocolate sauce from the sides in a way that it coats all the sides as it flows down.

Pour the Oreo and ice cream mixture in the glasses, top with a scoop of ice cream, Oreo biscuit and a wafer, and your delicious Oreo ice cream shake is ready. See, so easy and quick!
