Biscoff Milkshake

Get ready to love this Biscoff Milkshake recipe! It's the perfect way to make your own sweet treat right at home. Three simple ingredients are all you need to get started. 

Let's just all agree that making milkshakes at home never gets old. Not only do you get to make them as often as you want, but you suddenly realize that they're really not complicated or hard to do! Forget about spending $5+ dollars to have someone else make it for you and challenge your inner sweet tooth instead.

I'm a big fan of Biscotti cookies, so to say that I'm excited about this Lotus Biscoff milkshake recipe is an understatement. I think that it has a richer flavor than others, and I attribute that to the cookies and ice cream combination. I also love that this milkshake recipe has minimal ingredients, just Lotus Biscoff biscuits, vanilla ice cream, and milk, which really allows for all the flavor and taste to come through.

Ingredients 

Biscoff cookies - I use original Lotus Biscoff cookies in this recipe. They have a warm, spiced flavor with notes of cinnamon. You can swap in Biscoff cookie butter but it will make the milkshake pretty sweet.

Vanilla ice cream - Choose your favorite brand of ice cream. 

Whole milk - Whole milk adds richness and a creamy texture.

How to Make a Biscoff Milkshake

Step One: Add all the listed ingredients into a blender.

If you have a high-powered blender you can just add whole biscoff cookies, no need to break them up.

Step Two: Blend until the cookies are chopped up well, then add to your favorite milkshake glass. 

Variations

Add peanut butter - Because why not? Biscoff lovers will agree that adding nut butter just might make this the best Biscoff milkshake ever!

Dairy-free - You can make this milkshake recipe dairy-free by using dairy-free milk and ice cream. Oat milk, soy milk, and almond milk will work.

Add vanilla extract - Adding a splash of vanilla extract to the creamy milkshake is the best way to boost that vanilla flavor.

Use another cookie - While I made this recipe using Biscoff cookies, it's simple enough to change and use this exact recipe for any type of cookie that you want.

Common Questions 

What are Biscoff cookies?

Lotus Biscoff cookies are a delicious, crunchy cookie that has gotten very popular over the last few years. Lotus Biscoff cookies, aka speculoos cookies or speculoos biscuits, are from Belgium originally.

The cookies are made with ingredients like brown sugar syrup, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and other fall spices that give them a distinctive browned butter type of flavor. 

How do I get a thick milkshake texture?

You need to be sure that you are using a high powered blender when making the milkshake blend because that is key to getting the texture. The speed of the blades whips the crushed cookies and the creamy vanilla ice cream until it's fluffy and thick. Low speed isn't going to cut it.

Can I use other cookies to make this milkshake?

You can! I love Lotus cookies, but you can add others or even add more. For the best results, add cookies that will taste good together, like chocolate chip cookies or even caramel cookies.

Don't forget that you can add flavor to the rim of the glass, too, by spreading caramel sauce on it and then even dabbing on a little bit of brown sugar!

And if you really want to have a yummy flavoring, you can add a scoop of smooth Biscoff spread to this milkshake to really boost that Biscoff flavor! It's like making your own cookie butter milkshake!

What are good toppings to add to a milkshake?

I'm all about adding toppings to milkshakes. You can add crushed-up Lotus biscuits right on top, whipped cream, sprinkles - the list could go on forever.

If you want to make this into a Biscoff coffee milkshake, you can even add a little bit of instant coffee into the mixture, too.

Can I make this milkshake in advance?

For the best results, you will want to make this milkshake fresh.

However, you can make it and then freeze in popsicle molds for yummy ice cream pops! Coat with chocolate for the best ice cream bars you'll ever try.
