This is a Girl Scout Cookie-inspired milkshake for grownups only, but you can leave out the booze if you want to make a version for kids. Head here for more Girl Scout Cookie-inspired milkshakes »
Note: Allow ice cream to soften at room temperature for 5 minutes before scooping. We used Häagen-Dazs dulce de leche ice cream for this shake, but feel free to substitute other brands.
