Cadbury Mini Egg Thickshake in the Ninja Slushi Machine ✨
If there’s one thing I can’t resist, it’s a viral dessert trend—especially when Easter chocolate is involved. When I kept seeing the buzz about Macca’s launching a Mini Egg shake, I knew I had to get ahead of it. As the self-proclaimed Slushi queen, there was only one option: recreate (and improve) it at home using the Ninja Slushi Machine.
And let me tell you—this Cadbury Mini Egg Thickshake is elite. Creamy, chocolatey, packed with crunchy Mini Egg goodness, and topped with clouds of spray cream… it’s basically Easter in a cup.
The best part? It takes minutes to throw together.
Why I Love This Recipe
This isn’t just another milkshake. It’s thick. It’s indulgent. It has that perfect balance of malt, chocolate, and sweetened condensed milk that gives it a rich, almost soft-serve texture.
Here’s why it works so well:
- The vanilla malt milks add depth and that nostalgic diner flavor.
- Condensed milk makes it luxuriously sweet and creamy.
- Thickened cream boosts the texture to thickshake status.
- Crushed Cadbury Mini Eggs bring that signature pastel crunch and chocolate hit.
It’s festive without being complicated. No stovetop. No prep stress. Just blend, pour, top, sip.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- ✨ 2 vanilla malt milks
- ✨ ½ tin sweetened condensed milk
- ✨ ¼ cup thickened cream
- ✨ 1–2 packs Cadbury Mini Eggs, crushed (fine enough for a large straw)
- ✨ Spray cream, for topping
Ingredient Swaps & Notes
No vanilla malt milk?
Use full-cream milk plus 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon malt powder.
Want it thicker?
Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra body.
Crushing the Mini Eggs:
Pop them into a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin. Aim for small chunks—not powder, but fine enough so they don’t block your straw.
Sweeter or less sweet?
You can adjust the condensed milk slightly depending on your preference. Start with less if you’re unsure—you can always add more.
How to Make the Cadbury Mini Egg Thickshake
- Add to the Ninja Slushi Machine:
Pour in the vanilla malt milks, condensed milk, and thickened cream.
(Important: Do NOT add the crushed Mini Eggs yet.) - Select the Milkshake Setting:
Turn your Ninja Slushi Machine to the milkshake function and let it do its thing. This is where the magic happens. - Crush the Mini Eggs:
While the machine runs, crush your Mini Eggs to straw-friendly size. - Stir in the Chocolate:
Once the shake is perfectly blended and thick, stir in the crushed Mini Eggs. - Serve & Top:
Pour into chilled glasses, add a generous swirl of spray cream, and sprinkle extra crushed Mini Eggs on top for that bakery-style finish. - Sip Immediately:
Thickshakes wait for no one.
Tips for Success
- Chill your glasses before serving to keep the shake thick longer.
- Don’t over-crush the Mini Eggs—you want texture.
- If your shake is too thick, add a splash of milk and pulse briefly.
- Serve with wide straws or even a spoon for maximum enjoyment.
