Vanilla Ice Cream: Chick-fil-a uses old-fashioned flavored vanilla ice cream. It does have a distinct flavor that will remind you of classic vanilla milkshakes. However, any type of vanilla such as French vanilla or vanilla bean ice cream will work.
Milk: Milk is used to help liquify the ice cream. Use whole milk for the creamiest option, or whichever type of milk you'd like.
Oreos: Oreo cookies are great to blend into a shake. They have a strong cocoa flavor that pairs very well with the vanilla ice cream.
Toppings (Optional): Whipped cream and maraschino cherries just like the way Chick-fil-A does it.

Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ

Can I Make a Vegan Chick-fil-A Cookies and Cream Milkshake?

Yes, you actually can!

First off, Oreos are vegan so you're good on that end. So, the only thing you'd have to do would be make sure to use vegan ice cream and plant-based milk. There are loads of varieties stemming from almond milk, oat milk, soy milk, and coconut milk.

What Other Flavor Variations Can I Do?

Different Flavor of Ice Cream: You could realistically use any flavor and it would still be considered a cookies and cream milkshake. A few easy varieties would be chocolate, caramel, or peanut butter flavored ice cream.
Different Type of Cookie: If you're not an Oreo fan, use crushed up classic chocolate chip cookies for Chips Ahoy or Famous Amos. Nutter Butter cookies would also be a great substitute.

Can I Store the Chick-fil-A Cookies and Cream Milkshake?

Milkshakes are best enjoyed fresh because they are not that easy to store. If you're absolutely stuffed and can't finish it, here's what you can do.

Keep it in the freezer so it maintains maximum freshness. When you feel like you would want it again, transfer it to the fridge for a slow thaw, or take it out and put it on the counter for a faster thawing process.

You will need to check it periodically to know when it's able to be blended. A re-blend after it's been frozen is the best way to enjoy it again. If it melted too much while on the kitchen counter, you could put it back in the freezer for a bit or blend it with ice cubes or more icecream if you want it immediately.
