# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It delivers an entire dessert experience in a glass with almost zero effort
  • The cream cheese creates a velvety thickness that regular milkshakes just cannot match
02 -
  • Cold cream cheese blends terribly, so pull it out of the fridge at least twenty minutes before you start
  • Graham cracker crumbs vanish into the shake if you blend too long, so stop as soon as it looks smooth
03 -
  • Chill your glasses in the freezer for ten minutes to keep the shake thick longer
  • A tiny pinch of salt wakes up every single flavor in the glass
