  • For a thicker milkshake, use ice cream straight from the freezer and blend briefly.
  • If using cheesecake with a graham cracker crust, skip the additional graham cracker crumbs in the milkshake.
  • Chill the serving glasses before assembling for a colder, longer-lasting milkshake.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
