Refreshing and delicious, this Nutella Coffee Milkshake is the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. Chocolate, hazelnut and coffee flavors together make this caffeinated treat better than anything from the coffee shop!
It’s so easy to make fun specialty coffee drinks at home. These Caramel Coffee Milkshakes are addictive and so much less expensive than Starbucks.
Why this Recipe Works
Today’s sweet and creamy creation is for all of you Nutella fans!
- 3 ingredient coffee milkshake.
- Perfect way to use leftover coffee.
- Rich chocolatey flavor.
- Extra thick and creamy!
- Cheaper than a coffee shop and tastes better.
Nutella Coffee Milkshakes are quick and easy to make. Since I always have the ingredients on hand, I can blend up a couple of these frappes anytime the craving strikes.
Ingredient Notes
Here’s all you need to make these coffee shakes:
- Brewed coffee – I like to make a little extra hot coffee in the morning, then let it cool down. By afternoon, it’s ready to get blended into shakes. You can also use instant coffee or cold brewed coffee here.
- Ice cream – Vanilla ice cream is my preference for making Nutella milkshakes. For an even richer chocolate flavor, you can certainly use chocolate ice cream instead (or half vanilla, half chocolate!).
- Nutella – This chocolate hazelnut spread adds sweetness and rich cocoa flavor to the shake, with a hint of nutty flavor.
Tips and Tricks
- Blend the ice cream and Nutella with half the coffee first. Then, add a little more coffee at a time until your shake reaches your desired consistency. The more coffee you add, the more liquidy the shake will be.
- This recipe yields enough for 1 generous coffee milkshake. Feel free to double the ingredients so you have enough to share with a friend!
- Enjoy your Nutella milkshake right away! A dollop of whipped cream on top is a pretty and delicious addition.
Recipe FAQs
Nutella is a smooth spread made with sweetened chocolate and hazelnuts. You can find it in the peanut butter aisle of most grocery stores!
I love baking with (and eating!) Nutella. It’s a key ingredient in this Nutella Swirled Banana Bread and these Nutella Stuffed Donut Holes too!
There is a definite coffee flavor to this shake, we like it that way! The coffee taste is balanced by the creamy sweetness of the ice cream and the Nutella, so it’s definitely not bitter.
You sure can! Just swap the coffee for milk to make a regular Nutella milkshake without the caffeine content or coffee flavor.
Yes, espresso can be used in this recipe. It is much stronger than regular coffee though, so be prepared for an extra jolt!

Yum! You had me at Nutella. Love my single-serve cups as well. So handy for whenever the coffee mood hits.
OH MY GOSH YUM!!!!

Thanks so much Alicia!
I am a total coffee snob also – I make my boyfriend make it because no-one else has his touch with the beans (good scam eh?). But a coffee milkshake sounds awesome!
Nice scam LOL!!!
Super yum Aimee! I love this drink. I’m a total coffee snob too. I love my Keurig, it’s been the best thing ever!
Yeah, I need a PR rep to find me and send me free coffee more often. I spend nearly as much on coffee as I do chocolate. WHAT????
Darn, I don’t have any ice cream in the house! Or, maybe that’s a good thing…because I would be making myself one of these right now!! What a wonderful combination!
Nutella and coffee sounds great! The only thing I haven’t got at home at the moment is ice cream.. :/
It’s like it has nutella chips in it!!! I can’t even get over this milkshake. It is seriously the best of every possible world.
It IS like Nutella chips and they are delicious 🙂
Oh yum! This is perfect for a lazy summer afternoon. I always need a little caffeine boost after lunch!
My kids are all school age now, so it’s such a ritual for me to enjoy that cup of iced coffee/milkshake before anyone gets home (and the craziness begins)!
Oh, I love me a good cup of coffee too! Love my iced coffees in the summertime so I’ll have to remember this one. Pinning! 🙂
Dessert in a cup. I love it!
I have just recently become addicted to coffee and this milkshake looks insane! Once it warms up in Seattle, this milkshake has to be made.
Hope it warms up for you soon!!
It was a good day for it! Now I have it for the next one. I would never judge you about coffee becauseivebeenknowntodothesame.
I’m so making this!!!! I needed one yesterday after my humid workout (lol). It’s good motivation to run back home!! 😉
I also am a coffee addict and would love a single serve brewer, I’m sure!
Blessings,
Leslie
