Ingredients

  • 1 cup brewed coffee, cooled
  • 1/2 cup whole milk (or non-dairy milk like almond or oat milk)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate ice cream
  • 4 chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreos), crushed
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
  • 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder (optional, for extra coffee flavor)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • Whipped cream (for topping)
  • Extra crushed cookies or chocolate shavings (for garnish)

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Tall glasses for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Coffee: Brew 1 cup of coffee and let it cool to room temperature or chill it in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
  2. Blend the Base: In a blender, combine the cooled coffee, milk, chocolate ice cream, crushed chocolate sandwich cookies, chocolate syrup, instant espresso powder (if using), and vanilla extract.
  3. Add Ice: Add the ice cubes to the blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and frothy, about 30-45 seconds.
  4. Check Consistency: If the shake is too thick, add a splash more milk; if too thin, add a few more ice cubes or a scoop of ice cream and blend again.
  5. Serve: Pour the shake into tall glasses. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and garnish with extra crushed cookies or chocolate shavings.
  6. Enjoy: Serve immediately with a straw or spoon for the ultimate café mocha experience.

Tips

  • For a stronger coffee flavor, use cold brew coffee instead of regular brewed coffee.
  • To make it vegan, use dairy-free ice cream and non-dairy milk.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less chocolate syrup to taste.
