AVOID MY DISASTER (You’re Welcome)
- FORGOT to freeze the ice? It’s a watery mess—blend in frozen bananas instead.
- DUMPED too much milk? It’s a soup—add more ice or cookies to thicken.
- OVER‑TORCHED the cookie base? Burned taste ruins it—reduce blend time on the ice.
- FORGOT the scoop of vanilla? Missing depth—add a splash of vanilla extract.
QUICK FIXES THAT SAVE YOUR DAY
- When the texture is icy, gently microwave the mixture to soften slightly.
- Splash a bit more milk if the slushie is too thick and won’t blend.
- Patch flavor with a dollop of chocolate syrup for extra richness.
- Shield the blender from overfilling—works best in smaller portions.
- When missing sweetness, sprinkle in a little powdered sugar—smells like baked cookies.
