Ingredients
  

  • 2 oz vanilla vodka smooth and sweet, the backbone of the cocktail
  • 1 oz crème de cacao adds rich chocolate flavor
  • 1 oz half-and-half creamy and mellow, balances sweetness
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract boosts vanilla flavor
  • as needed sugar cookie crumbs or mini cookies for garnish and crunch
  • as needed ice for chilling the drink

Method
 

  1. Fill your cocktail shaker with plenty of ice, creating a frosty base for chilling.
  2. Pour in 2 ounces of vanilla vodka, which will give the cocktail its smooth, sweet flavor.
