Let your ice cream soften just slightly for the perfect mix-in consistency. • Use a rolling pin or kitchen mallet to crush Oreos, creating a mix of fine crumbs and small chunks for ultimate texture. • Mix gently to maintain the creamy ice cream structure and prevent over-melting. • For an authentic Dairy Queen look, use an ice cream scoop and create a slightly mounded presentation. • Serve immediately for the best taste and texture. • Pro hack: Chill your serving glasses beforehand to keep the Blizzard colder for longer. • Optional: Keep some extra crushed Oreos for a stunning top garnish that'll make your dessert Instagram-worthy!
