About this recipe
Strawberry cheesecake milkshake with the Thermomix TM7 turns the classic dessert into a thick, drinkable treat you can make in minutes. This recipe is a firm favourite with anyone searching for quick milkshake recipes, because the all-in-one kitchen machine chops the digestive biscuits into a fine crumb and then blends frozen strawberries, cream cheese, Greek yoghurt, milk and caster sugar into a silky-smooth shake without any lumps. The lemon zest and natural vanilla extract lift the flavour, giving that authentic New York cheesecake character in a glass. Frozen strawberries are the secret weapon: they chill and thicken the shake naturally, so no ice cubes are needed to water it down. Serve this creamy dessert drink at children's birthdays, garden parties or as a weekend indulgence, topped with extra biscuit crumbs and a fresh strawberry on the rim of the glass.
Preparation tips
- Use frozen strawberries straight from the freezer so the milkshake turns out thick and frosty without dilution from ice cubes; thawed berries will make the drink watery and lose that milkshake body.
- Chop the digestive biscuits coarsely rather than finely if you prefer a crunchier texture, and reserve a spoonful to sprinkle over the finished shake for a pretty garnish.
- For a lighter version, swap the cream cheese for extra Greek yoghurt and add a little more caster sugar; a drop of lemon juice boosts the fresh tang of the strawberries.
Recipe variations
- Lactose-free variation: replace the milk with lactose-free milk or oat drink and use lactose-free cream cheese and coconut yoghurt; the frozen strawberries keep the shake just as thick and creamy.
- Festive summer variation: swap half the strawberries for frozen raspberries and decorate the glass rim with crushed biscuit and a strawberry slice for a party-ready pink twist.
Thermomix TM7 Benefits
- Digestive biscuits are chopped into an even crumb by the Thermomix in seconds, giving the milkshake its authentic cheesecake base texture.
- Frozen strawberries and milk are mixed by the TM7 into a silky, lump-free shake with a velvety café-style consistency.
- Fresh lemon zest is grated finely by the Thermomix so its oils release fully, perfuming the whole milkshake without bitter pith.
- Weigh the caster sugar and cream cheese directly into the mixing bowl on the TM7 scale, saving separate measuring cups and washing up.
- Greek yoghurt is whipped lightly by the Thermomix with the butterfly whisk, adding airy volume for an extra-thick dessert shake.
