FAQs About McDonald’s Oreo Caramel Frappe

Why does your Oreo caramel frappe have chunks of ice?

Insufficient blending results in a grainy or chunky texture. For a smoother texture, simply blend the frappe for a longer duration. Also, use a high-powered blender to crush the ice fully.

Why is your Oreo caramel frappe too watery?

Your frappe may have a watery consistency because you used more milk than required. So, I recommend you use liquid in accurate measurements, or else you can also fix it by adding some thickening agents.

Why is your frappe separating too quickly?

Your frappe may separate because you have not added any emulsifiers. To avoid separation, simply use xantham gum or add a small amount of ice cream.

How can you make this Oreo caramel frappe thicker?

Add more ice or reduce the amount of milk to make your Oreo caramel frappe thicker. This will result in a thicker consistency.

Is it okay to crush the Oreos before adding them to the blender?

It’s a great idea to crush the Oreos before adding them to the blender, especially if you love small chunks in your frappe. Crushed Oreos will help the cookies blend more evenly, giving the frappe a smoother texture.
