Cookies & Cream Dream: Oreo Hot Chocolate

Because regular hot chocolate is cute… but hot chocolate with Oreos? That has main-character energy.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Servings: 1 serving
Course: Drinks

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 6 Oreo cookies
  • 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 pinch salt
  • Whipped cream
  • Chocolate syrup
  • Extra Oreos

Method
 

  1. Twist apart the Oreos and crush the cookies into chunky crumbs. Try not to “accidentally” snack on too many in the process.
  2. Warm the milk and cream together in a saucepan over medium heat until steamy and just about to simmer — no boiling, we’re going gentle and luxurious here.
  3. Whisk in the cocoa powder and sugar until smooth and glossy. No lumps allowed.
  4. Add the chocolate chips and stir until they melt into silky, chocolatey bliss.
  5. Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies and that sweet cream filling, letting everything melt together into full cookies-and-cream magic.
  6. Stir in the vanilla, then remove from the heat before it gets too excited.
  7. Pour into mugs, pile high with whipped cream, drizzle with chocolate syrup, and crown with extra Oreo crumbs.

Notes

If you’re chasing that ultra-creamy, barista-style texture, this is your secret weapon: the blender.
Pour the finished hot chocolate in and blend for about 30 seconds. It smooths out any cookie bits, whips a little air into the mix, and transforms everything into a silky, velvety dream. The Oreo flavor melts right into every sip instead of sitting in pockets — so it tastes rich, balanced, and fully infused.
