A swirling pool of bright blue speckled with chocolate cookie bits, this blue monster frozen dessert adds a fun spin to homemade cold treats. Every rich bite delivers just the right mix of smooth vanilla base and crispy cookie chunks that'll have everyone at your table grinning with childhood memories.
I whipped this up one hot summer day with my nieces who were dead set on getting the blue color "exactly right for the monster look." After we tested several batches and munched through many cookies, we found this winning combo that's now on the must-have list at all family get-togethers.
Smart Ingredient Choices
- Heavy Whipping Cream: Keep it super cold for the fluffiest whip
- Sweetened Condensed Milk: Gives you that silky, rich consistency
- Blue Gel Food Coloring: Stick with gel instead of liquid for brighter color
- Vanilla Extract: The real stuff makes all the difference
- Oreos: Go with the standard ones, not Double Stuf, for better balance
- Chips Ahoy: Their snap adds a great texture contrast
