How to Make a Samoa Milkshake
This is a brief overview of this delicious recipe. For the full recipe see the recipe card at the bottom of the post.
- Combine the ingredients in a blender. Add the ice cream, coconut milk, and caramel sauce to a blender
- Blend until smooth.
- Serve the milkshake. I got these great milkshake glasses as a thrift store, but you can find them online as well. Top with whipped cream and toasted coconut.
Coconut Milk
Coconut milk is made from the liquid inside of a coconut as well as the flesh. It is typically very thick and needs to be shaken before measured. I typically find it in a can in the international food aisle.
You will want to avoid coconut cream. This is great in my piña coladas, but it has added sugar which isn’t needed here with the ice cream and caramel sauce.
Toasted Coconut
I love having toasted coconut on hand. It is amazing for topping desserts like my Samoas Poke Cake. But it is also really fun to have on hand as a topping for ice cream sundae bars. Toasted coconut is so easy to make, but if you don’t know how, I have a full tutorial in the link below.

Whipped Cream
You can make your own whipped cream to top this delicious milkshake. Whipped cream is super easy to make and is the perfect topping for everything from this milkshake to Sunday morning chocolate chip pancakes. If you are an avid chocolate lover, you might want to make some chocolate whipped cream for this recipe!
If you want it to pipe really pretty, you might consider making my stabilized whipped cream. It is thicker, pipes better, and won’t wilt after piping.

Best Blender for Milkshakes
I absolutely love my Ninja. It is a whole package that came with a bullet perfect for making smoothies, and a food processor that I use for everything from hummus to pizza dough. But obviously the blender component is perfect for whipping up milkshakes!

Dorothy @ Crazy for Crust says
Yeah, I kind of hated being pregnant…with just my one. That’s why there are exactly 3 pics of me pregnant and one is from really far away. :)
This milkshake. You deserve 6!
Brianne @ Cupcakes & Kale Chips says
Oh my gosh, I spilled stuff on myself all the time when I was pregnant. And this milkshake is kinda making me wish I were in the 3rd trimester of my first (non-gestational diabetes) pregnancy so I could drink about eight!
Julianne @ Beyond Frosting says
This milkshake is so amazing! But you list, just makes me laugh! I have never been pregnant, but the closer in age I get to 30, the less eager I am to start having children.
