The Spiked Chips Ahoy “Egg” Cream is a playful, grown-up twist on the classic New York egg cream — with no eggs, no cream, and a splash of cookie-inspired indulgence. This bubbly, chocolatey drink blends the nostalgic flavor of Chips Ahoy cookies with creamy chocolate milk, fizzy seltzer, and a touch of coffee liqueur or Irish cream for a spirited upgrade. It’s smooth, frothy, and lightly sweet, making it a fun dessert cocktail for the holidays or a cozy night in.

Instructions
-
Prepare the glass:
Add chocolate syrup to the bottom of a tall glass. Pour in the milk and stir well to combine. -
Add the spike:
Stir in the coffee liqueur or Irish cream for a boozy touch. -
Froth it up:
Slowly pour in the cold seltzer water while stirring briskly. The drink should foam up and create a frothy head at the top — that’s the signature look of an egg cream. -
Add the cookies:
Sprinkle crushed Chips Ahoy cookies over the foam. If you like, top with whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup for extra sweetness. -
Serve immediately:
Enjoy right away while it’s cold and fizzy.

Tips
-
For a stronger coffee flavor, add a splash of chilled espresso.
-
To make a non-alcoholic version, skip the liqueur and stir in a bit of vanilla extract instead.
-
Crushed cookies can also be mixed into the drink for texture.
-
Chill all ingredients before making to keep the foam light and bubbly.
Creamy, fizzy, and just a little naughty, the Spiked Chips Ahoy “Egg” Cream combines childhood nostalgia with adult indulgence — the perfect treat for cookie lovers who enjoy a hint of mischief in their glass.
