Why You’ll Love This Recipe
If you love flavored coffee, you already know that COFFEE-MATE® Liquid Coffee Creamer is a game-changer. But have you ever used it to flavor a milkshake?
By using the Cookies & Cream flavor, you add a deep, chocolatey cookie profile to a classic vanilla base without needing a dozen extra ingredients. Top it all off with a generous dollop of Reddi-wip® Original Whipped Topping—made with real cream—for the perfect finishing touch.
🎨 Get Creative with Flavors
While I used Cookies & Cream for that classic "cow" vibe, you can swap in other favorites to create your own signature shake:
- French Vanilla or Italian Sweet Cream (for a silky, classic taste)
- Coconut Caramel Latte (for a tropical twist)
- Toasted Marshmallow Mocha (for a s'mores feel)
What You'll Need
- COFFEE-MATE® Cookies & Cream Liquid Coffee Creamer
- Reddi-wip® Original Whipped Topping
- Vanilla Ice Cream
- Chocolate Ganache (for the spots)
- Mason jars and cow-print straws
How to Make "Cow Spotted" Glasses
The secret to the "MOO" in these MOOShakes is the chocolate ganache.
- Prep the Ganache: Use a thick chocolate ganache or hot fudge sauce.
- Paint the Spots: Using a small spoon or a food-safe brush, "paint" irregular circles and blobs on the inside of your mason jar.
- Chill: Pop the glasses in the freezer for 5–10 minutes to set the spots before pouring in your milkshake. This ensures your "spots" stay put!
