Dylan’s Story + The Ramsay Technique
The First Time I Ruined This Dish
When I first attempted to make a shake inspired by Gordon Ramsay, I thought I could just throw everything in a blender and call it a day. Spoiler alert: it didn’t turn out well. The texture was off, and I ended up with a lumpy mess. That’s when I realized the importance of technique. Ramsay emphasizes the balance of flavors and textures, and I learned that a little finesse goes a long way.
The One Ramsay Technique That Changed Everything
One technique that transformed my shakes was the way Ramsay preps the glass. By coating the rim with cookie butter and crushed cookies, you elevate the entire experience. It’s a simple step that adds a gourmet touch, making your shake feel like a dessert from a high-end restaurant. Trust me, it’s worth the extra minute!
Ingredients + Prep
The Must-Have Ingredients (and My Smart Swaps)
Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious Gordon Ramsay Biscoff Shake:
- 1 ½ cups (225g) vanilla ice cream
- ⅓ cup (80ml) whole milk
- ¼ cup (60g) Biscoff cookie butter spread
- 4 Biscoff cookies, crushed + 1 whole for garnish
- Whipped cream
These ingredients are key to achieving that creamy, dreamy texture. If you want to lighten it up, you can swap the whole milk for almond milk or use low-fat ice cream. Just remember, the richer the ingredients, the more indulgent the shake!
How I Prep This Dish Without Losing My Mind
Prep is a breeze! Start by gathering all your ingredients. I like to crush the Biscoff cookies in a zip-top bag — it’s less messy and keeps the crumbs contained. Also, make sure your ice cream is slightly softened for easier blending. Trust me, it makes a world of difference!

The 3 Most Common Mistakes (And My Fixes)
1. **Lumpy Shake**: Make sure your ice cream is softened before blending. It helps achieve that smooth texture.
2. **Too Sweet**: If you find it overly sweet, add a splash of milk to balance the flavors.
3. **Soggy Cookies**: Don’t let the cookies sit in the shake too long before serving. They’re best when they’re crunchy!
Serving + Leftovers
Serve This Like You’re Hosting Hell’s Kitchen
Presentation matters! Serve your shake in a tall glass with a generous swirl of whipped cream on top. You can even drizzle some extra cookie butter over the whipped cream for that extra touch. If you’re feeling fancy, add a sprinkle of crushed cookies on top.
Leftovers That Actually Get Better the Next Day
Leftover shake? No problem! Store it in an airtight container in the freezer. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping it out. You can also blend it again for a fresh, creamy texture.
For a fun twist, try adding a splash of coffee or a scoop of peanut butter to your leftover shake for a new flavor experience!
