Read on for this over the top milkshake recipe!
What is a Freakshake?
A freakshake is the ultimate milkshake. A homemade milkshake forms the base, and then it’s decorated with everything you can think of – candy, doughnuts, cookies, waffles, sprinkles – the sky is the limit!
Who Invented the Freakshake?
The official “Freakshake” was invented in Canberra, Australia at Patissez cafe. Now people all over the world have put their take on this Instagrammable treat. It’s turned into a competition to see who can build the ultimate milkshake.
S’mores Gourmet Milkshake Recipe
People talk a lot about apple pie as a traditional American symbol, but I would like to argue that nothing is more American than s’mores. I’m putting a twist on this classic treat by turning it into a gourmet milkshake!
First, a homemade graham cracker milkshake is poured into a chocolate lined glass. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and use chocolate to “glue” mini Hershey’s bars to the rim. Top with whipped cream, graham cracker crumbs, and of course, a toasted marshmallow. It’s the ultimate milkshake!

Instructions
- Heat chocolate in the microwave on 30 second intervals until melted. Chill in fridge for 10-15 minutes until thick enough to spread. Set aside 1/2 cup.
- Use the back of a spoon to spread a layer of chocolate around the inside of your glass. Spread more around the rim of the glass. It should be thick, but if it starts to harden or ‘seize’ you can microwave it on 10 second intervals until it softens.
- Make the chocolate shake by blending ice cream, milk, 1/2 cup of the melted chocolate and graham crackers until smooth.
- Use leftover melted chocolate as ‘glue’ to attach pieces of HERSHEY’S Milk Chocolate Bars to Microwave on 10 second intervals if the chocolate starts to seize.
- Spoon a generous spoonful of ice cream into glass. Pour in milkshake mixture.
- Pipe whipped cream on top using an open star piping tip.
- Sprinkle with crushed graham cracker. Drizzle with chocolate syrup.
