Oreo Shakes
I’m not big on Oreo shakes. I’d rather have a chocolate malt any day. But, Max and Dad love them, and when I asked what Max wanted to make next for our blog entry, he immediately requested these. I briefly thought about making this a real project by making our own ice cream first, then just decided to go for the quick and the convenient. As you can see from the pictures, we used store bought vanilla ice cream, regular Oreo cookies, and skim milk. Super quick and easy summer treat.

1 1/2 cups milk
8 Oreo cookies, broken up
Instructions:
Put milk and ice cream in the blender together. Blend for a few seconds until smooth. Dump in the cookies and blend for a few more seconds. Pour and serve immediately. Makes 2 12 oz shakes.
Mom Thinks: I tried a few sips and these are pretty tasty.
Max Thinks: Yum. Easy. Is this really even cooking? Did we even use a recipe?
