Cooking on a hot day can be a serious challenge, especially when you crave something sweet and cool but don’t want to turn on the oven. Enter the Oreo slushie — a surprisingly simple yet indulgent treat that turns your favorite cookie into a frosty delight. The magic lies in how the creamy ice blends with chunks of chocolatey goodness, creating a texture that’s both smooth and satisfyingly crumbly.

When I first discovered this recipe, it felt like a nostalgic shortcut back to childhood afternoons. But it also became my go-to for spontaneous gatherings or a quick hush-hush dessert to surprise guests. Plus, it’s so easy, I honestly can’t believe I didn’t start making it months ago. The cooler months? Perfect too—just swap the ice for frozen bananas, and you’re set.

The Oreo slushie is a frozen beverage made by blending crushed Oreo cookies with ice and milk, creating a thick, creamy drink with chunks of chocolate cookie throughout.
