 How to Prepare the Recipe

 Step 1: Prepare the Strawberry Drizzle

1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice.

2. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries break down and the sauce thickens.

3. For a thicker consistency, dissolve the cornstarch in water and stir it in. Cook another 1–2 minutes until glossy.

4. Let it cool and set aside.

Pro Tip: You can blend the sauce for a smoother consistency or leave it chunky for texture.

 Step 2: Make the Cookie Crumble

1. Crush the biscuits or cookies into coarse crumbs (use a food processor or zip-top bag and rolling pin).

2. Mix with melted butter (and brown sugar, if using) until the texture resembles wet sand.

3. Set aside for garnish and rim decoration.

 Step 3: Decorate the Glasses

1. Take two large milkshake glasses or mason jars.

2. Use a spoon to drizzle the strawberry sauce inside the glasses for a decorative swirl.

3. Dip the rims of the glasses in strawberry jam or melted white chocolate, then coat with crushed cookies or sprinkles.

4. Chill the glasses in the freezer while making the milkshake.

 Step 4: Make the Cheesecake Milkshake

1. In a blender, combine vanilla ice cream, softened cream cheese, milk, strawberries, jam, and vanilla extract.

2. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust milk for thinner consistency if desired.

3. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding extra jam or a drizzle of honey if needed.

 Step 5: Assemble the Freakshake

1. Remove glasses from the freezer.

2. Fill each glass about three-quarters full with the cheesecake milkshake.

3. Add a generous swirl of whipped cream on top.

4. Drizzle with strawberry sauce and sprinkle with cookie crumble.

5. Garnish with fresh strawberries, mini cheesecake cubes, or any over-the-top toppings you love.

 Serving Suggestions

• Serve Immediately with wide straws or dessert spoons.
