Instructions

Add 1/2 cup whole milk and 2 cups vanilla ice cream to a blender.
Add pure vanilla extract and the crushed crunchy cookies.
Blend on low for 10 seconds to combine, then on medium-high for 20–30 seconds until smooth but still thick with cookie pieces.
Check consistency and add 1 tablespoon milk at a time if too thick, or 1/4 cup additional ice cream if too thin. Pulse briefly if needed to mix.
Pour into a chilled 16-ounce glass and top with 2 tablespoons whipped cream.
Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.

Tips

Use sturdy crunchy cookies like shortbread or butter cookies for best texture. Pulse the blender briefly at the end to keep cookie crunch.
