How To MakeChristmas Cookie Ice Cream Shots
A few things to keep in mind if ice cream shots are new to you, be sure to prep the rims of your shot glasses in advance so that all you have to do is blend and serve when guests arrive.
To make the shots, rim your glasses with white sprinkles by dipping the glasses in simple syrup and then into your sprinkles.
Blend the rest of the ingredients by choosing either the adult or kid friendly version.
And then, pour and serve immediately.
How To Make Mini Christmas Straws
To make the mini straws, simply cut regular paper straws to the appropriate size.
Recipe Variations
For chocolate mint shots, use mint-flavored Oreos and top with melted mint chocolate.
For s’more shots, substitute the Oreo cookie for a graham cracker and use regular Hershey’s chocolate bars. Toast marshmallows on sticks over an open flame before assembling the shooters.
For peanut butter shots, use peanut butter cups in place of the Hershey’s Kisses and top with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
Biscoff/Speculoos spread is a popular alternative to cream cheese as it is thicker and sweeter. It can also be served frozen (to create a thicker shot).
Oatmeal raisin cookies work well if you want to go for an “out of the box” version.
Recipes can also be adapted into larger servings by placing the ingredients into glasses and topping with whipped cream.
For St. Patrick’s Day, top green-dyed frosting on white chocolate chips. There are endless variations so feel free to experiment!

A: While cookies and cream ice cream is not the most nutrient-dense food, it does provide some benefits. It contains calcium, which is important for bone health, and a small amount of protein from the milk used in the ice cream.
Etymology. The origin of the name "Oreo" is unknown, but there are many hypotheses, including derivations from the French word or, meaning "gold", or from the Greek word ωραίο (oreo) meaning "nice" or "attractive". Others believe that the cookie was named Oreo simply because the name was short and easy to pronounce.
Oreo was created in 1912 as an imitation of Hydrox. Oreo eventually surpassed Hydrox in popularity, which resulted in the Hydrox cookies being perceived by many as an Oreo off-brand, despite the opposite being the case.
In the earliest days of Blue Bell's Cookies 'n Cream, making each batch required quite a bit of legwork. As Blue Bell had to buy individual packages of Oreos from Nabisco and manually open each bag that went into the ice cream. This process grew tiresome, and today the company bakes its own cookies for the treat.
If you don't have any on hand, you can almost always omit the vanilla without impacting the final texture of your baked goods; although the rich flavor extract—or any form of vanilla—brings will certainly be altered. Just remember one thing: flavor comes first.
While it can easily stand on its own, cookies and cream pairs well with fruit too. The bright tartness of berries (strawberry, raspberry), tropical fruit (mango, coconut), and stone fruit (peach, cherry) contrast nicely with the creamy sweetness of cookies and cream flavor.
