This birthday cake milkshake is a fun way to celebrate your birth as an adult, while still harking back to your childhood days. The boozy Oreo birthday cake shake is a recipe from the blog That's So Michelle. The devilishly delicious cocktail is a corrupted version of a classic drink you probably enjoyed as a kid.
The simple treat is made with birthday cake-flavored everything -- the scoops of ice cream, milk and Oreo cookies. You will also need a few shots of milk to put into the birthday cake ice cream. Depending on the desired alcoholic strength of the beverage, you can also substitute one of those milk shots for an extra shot of vodka.
