Cookies and cream ice cream was such a classic dessert for me as a kid and I have been craving it lately! So I had to recreate it, keto style. I made this keto cookies and cream milkshake to cure my craving and this did just that!
This cookies and cream milkshake is a creamy, salty, and thick dessert or snack! Be sure to top it off with extra grated dark chocolate and the almond butter drizzle. It really completes this shake!

I tried this recipe and it came out totally watery – is this supposed to be thick?
It should be somewhere in the middle – not super watery but it is definitely on the liquid side vs being a vicious shake. You can add more ice cubes into it to help give it some texture, or you can use canned coconut milk instead for a thicker shake (though this does change the flavor and will add a lot of calories from fat into the recipe).
