Ingredients
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup rolled oats

- 1 banana
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 2 cups of milk, 1/2 cup of rolled oats, 1/4 cup of crumbled chocolate chip cookies, 1 ripe banana, and 1 tablespoon of honey.
- In a blender, add the rolled oats first. This will help them blend more smoothly into the mixture.
- Peel the banana and break it into smaller pieces before adding it to the blender. This ensures it blends evenly.
- Add the crumbled chocolate chip cookies to the blender. If you prefer a chunkier texture, reserve a few pieces for garnish later.
- Pour in the 2 cups of milk. You can use any type of milk you prefer, such as whole, almond, or oat milk.
- Drizzle in 1 tablespoon of honey for sweetness. You can adjust this amount based on your taste preference.
- Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed until all the ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.
- If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
- Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more honey or another sweetener of your choice.
- Once blended, pour the smoothie into two glasses. If you reserved some cookie pieces, sprinkle them on top for garnish.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Chocolate Chip Cookie Smoothie!
Tips
- Choose Your Milk Wisely: Experiment with different types of milk, such as almond, coconut, or oat milk, to find your favorite flavor combination.
- Make It Healthier: For a healthier twist, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar, or omit it altogether if you prefer a less sweet smoothie.
- Customize Your Texture: If you enjoy a thicker smoothie, blend in a handful of ice cubes or a scoop of Greek yogurt for added creaminess.
- Add Extra Nutrition: Boost the nutritional value by adding a scoop of protein powder, a tablespoon of nut butter, or a sprinkle of chia seeds.
- Garnish for Appeal: Don’t forget to reserve some cookie crumbles for garnish! It adds a delightful crunch and makes your smoothie look even more appetizing.
- Blend in Stages: If your blender struggles with tougher ingredients, blend the oats and banana first, then add the rest for a smoother consistency.
- Chill Your Ingredients: For an extra refreshing smoothie, chill your ingredients beforehand, especially the milk, to enhance the overall experience.
- Serve Immediately: This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh. Serve it right away to savor the delightful flavors and textures at their peak!
