Ingredients:
Base Frappuccino:
- 1 cup milk (whole or oat milk for creaminess)
- 1 cup ice cubes

- 2–3 crushed Oreo cookies
- 1–2 tablespoons strawberry syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Toppings:
- Whipped cream
- Crushed Oreos
- Strawberry drizzle

Instructions:
🥄 Step 1: Prep Your Ingredients
- Make sure your cream cheese is soft for smooth blending.
- If using frozen strawberries, no need to thaw—they’ll help thicken the drink.

In a blender, combine:
- Milk
- Ice cubes
- Strawberries
- Cream cheese
- Ice cream
- Crushed Oreos
- Strawberry syrup

🍹 Step 3: Decorate & Serve

- Top generously with whipped cream.
- Sprinkle crushed Oreos and drizzle strawberry syrup over the top.
- Garnish with a mini cheesecake bite or fresh strawberry on the rim for extra flair.
