This giveaway is now closed! The winner of the Blendtec Blender is…comment #2,476: Suzi.

It is no secret that I adore cookies. Everyone always asks what my favorite cookie is and I can never answer. I have over 100 cookie recipes on our site and I love each and every one of them. I am always tempted to answer chocolate chip though. You can never go wrong with a good chocolate chip cookie. I decided to turn one of my favorite cookies into the ultimate summer treat-a Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake.

We almost always have homemade cookies on hand at our house. I saw a dozen chocolate chip cookies sitting on the counter and decided they would make a great milkshake. I told Josh my idea and he immediately got out our Blendtec blender. We added vanilla ice cream, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chips, and milk. We let our Blentec do the work while we watched with excitement. I couldn’t wait to taste this milkshake.

Josh poured the shake into glasses and we topped them off with whipped cream and a few chocolate chips. I broke a chocolate chip cookie in half and stuck a half in each of our glasses. I grabbed two straws and we were happily sipping away on our chocolate chip cookie milkshakes. This is the best milkshake I have ever had-hands down. It is a cookie lover’s dream shake!

I used this chocolate chip cookie recipe for the shake, but any chocolate chip cookie recipe will do. I will have to try this shake with my Vanilla Pudding Chocolate Chip Cookies and the New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookies. See I like to many cookie recipes:)

If you are looking for a sweet summer treat, try this Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake. It is a dream dessert for cookie and ice cream lovers.

And now for a fantastic Blendtec blender giveaway! We used our Blendtec blender to make this shake. We have tried a lot of different blenders in our days and we usually end up throwing them out because they never work. Not the Blendtec though! We LOVE our Blendtec. It is a dream machine! It blends everything to perfection and I mean everything. We’ve blended smoothies, ice cream, sauces, dressings, nut butter, etc. It blends everything with ease-even ice. I have been on a smoothie kick lately and our Blendtec makes the best smoothies. It has a special smoothie button that creates perfect smoothies every time. I don’t have to shake the blender like mad for it to grind the ice. It does it all on it’s own.

Josh is obsessed with the “Will it Blend Series on YouTube.” If you haven’t seen any of the videos, you have to check them out. They are fun to watch. Tom Dickson, the star, blends anything and everything in the Blendtec-including an iPhone and iPad. So cool!

  1. I would make a fruit smoothie….some berries, vanilla yogurt, a little orange juice and some ice. My son has been bagging for a smoothie…but we left our blender behind when we relocated from Oregon to Alaska…would love a new blender!

  2. Great giveaway. My blender has a hard time with a smoothie, so I’d probably start with that.

  3. got the cookie ingredients ready… no brainer… I am totally making this.

    Maybe with a drizzle of dulch de leche. OMG

  4. Your milkshake photos are amazing! I think I might have to try your milkshake before anything else!

  5. I just saw a recipe for a grilled gaspatcho soup that would probabaly be what I would make first. My boyfriend and I just broke up and he got the blender so if I won this would be perfect timing:)

  6. I would make Haitian blck bean sauce. (sos pwa nwa). It is sooooo good but I have actually burnrd out the motors on two blenders making it. Thanks for osting a giveaway!

  7. First thing I would make is my banana/peanut butter shake that I have been living off until this baby comes. My current blender is about ready to die.
    I liked you and Blendtec on Facebook. I subscribed to your email.

  8. I can not believe I do not even own a blender! I went to make Pina Colada*s the other day and realized I didn*t have one! This would be great!! ๐Ÿ™‚

  9. I’m in DESPERATE need for a blender. I have the Bullet-on-the-Go and I can’t stand it. Locks up from the ice and doesn’t blend spinach very well.

    If I had a Blendtec I’d make THE BEST smoothie with spinach and top it with my favorite granola and almond butter drizzle.

  10. The first thing I would make is a green smoothie – my favorite! My blender is a little weak so this would definitely brighten my mornings. ๐Ÿ™‚

  11. I avoid using the blender because I hate them, they don’t do what I need them to so it’s hard to say what I’ll make first in my blendtec…probably a Green Monster (I love those) or some powerized oatmeal (flour) to make Mr.s Fields knockoff chocolate chip cookies.

  12. It might sound boring but I would make some type of smoothie. I had a blender that didn’t really blend, so I just sold it at a yard sale. I am blenderless and could really use a new blender. Fingers crossed!

  13. first of all, my husband would be a VERY happy man if i made that milkshake for him ๐Ÿ™‚

    and of course i follow you on twitter!

  14. Wow – If I won, I think my first thing I’d make would be a milkshake – probably mocha. It’s my birthday today, so maybe I’d make a birthday cake milkshake!

  15. I have been dreaming of a Blendtec blender for a while now…oh my goodness I want to win this so bad! Pick me pick me!

    First thing I would make is a green juice. I’m obsessed with green juice and it just didn’t happen very well in my regular blender.

  16. Since it’s summer, I would guess a smoothie would be the first thing I would make. Thanks for the chance to win!

  17. Hands down, a banana peanut butter smoothie. I haven’t had one since my last blender went on strike… 4 years ago! Just can’t figure out a productive way to do it with my immersion blender.

  18. The first thing I would make with a Blendtec blender would be a smoothie packed full of fresh summer fruit, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and coconut butter. Yum!

  19. I think I would make a smoothie- my son loves smoothies, but nothing we have blends them very well. This looks like an amazing blender!

  20. I subscribed to email updates! I would try to blend a healthy smoothie first, but I would probably break down and make this delicious sounding milkshake. mmmmm! ๐Ÿ™‚

  21. After reading this post, most DEFINITELY a chocolate chip cookie milkshake!
    That looks incredible!

  22. I’d make this milkshake. It looks amazing! It would also be nice to have a really powerful blender like this one for making almond flour.

  23. I would whip up a fruit smoothie…I lust over those super expensive ones you can buy, but my blender chokes at the first semisolid thing I throw in there. Blender FAIL. Blendtec sounds amazing!

  24. ooh, i’d definitely make a smoothie or milkshake! the high today is 105, so i need some treats to cool me off!

  25. I’m pretty sure the first thing that I make in that blender would have to be the AMAZING looking shake you posted! Yum! I can’t think of much yummier than chocolate chip cookies blended into ice cream and milk!

  26. oh my goodness, this looks amazing. This Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake would be the first thing I make for sure! I would probably add some bananas too!

  27. I would probably make a smoothie first! I worked at a smoothie shop during the summers in college & we used Blentec blenders & nothing compares! I would LOVE to have one!

  28. I would make the Cookie Milkshake – I would like one right now they sound so good! Only addition would be to add malt!

  29. Definitely making this milkshake! Maybe I’ll just do some taste-testing in the meantime and figure out which chocolate chip cookies should go in it…maybe then I’ll have to eat some chocolate chip cookies!

  30. Well- I made the Vanilla Pudding Chocolate Chip Cookies last night and they are TO DIE FOR. I want to use the blender to make the choc. chip cookie milkshake ofcourse!

  31. I am not from US but I still follow you on twitter =) love chocolate milkshake.

  32. I would definitely make a milkshake. I’m 5 months pregnant and ice cream, in any form, is my weakness!

  33. I’d make the cinnamon-raisin almond butter. I made it last night but my Cuisinart started smoking. I couldn’t believe it.

  34. Liked, following, and subscribed! This blender looks awesome! I’d probably make a smoothie first off. Canned pumpkin, unsweetened vanilla almond breeze, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla protein powder. Yes.

  35. I’ve always wanted to make a chocolate chip cookie dough milkshake – that’s what I would try first!

  36. Maria, it is essential that I get a high powered blender like this. Really, I feel like it is the most essential kitchen appliance I am missing.
    Love the shake! I would make soups and shakes in mine….if I win ๐Ÿ˜‰

  37. The first thing I would blend would have to be some sort of nut butter! I don’t have a food processor and the blender I have now is broken:( So I would def love to try a nut butter first and then many many other things….including that heavenly looking milkshake!

  38. Its summertime, so I would use that baby to make some frozen drinks. Frosty Pina Coladas come to mind.

  39. I would make this (chocolate chip cookie) shake of course! It looks amazing and the texture is perfect, mine usually end up looking like a milky mess. My kids might even listen to me for a whole day if I made this shake! Thanks for an awesome giveaway.
    Following Two Peas and their Pod and Blendtec on Twitter, Liked Two Peas and their Pod and Blendtec on Facebook!!

  40. It’s hot as could be in New Orleans, I would whirl up some yummy cool smoothies for the family to cool off with. Depends on what looks good at the farmers market that day, but something strawberry, peach and spinach sounds YUMMY!

  41. I’m about to start a detox, so the first thing I’d blend up are the detox smoothies I’ll be drinking for a week! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  42. The first thing I will make is a milkshake or a protein smoothie. I would love to win this blender.

  43. The first thing I would make in this blender is most definitely a serious batch of smoothies for my kids. They’ve been desperate since my Kitchen Aid blender kicked the bucket last month. I’ve been ogling Blendtec Blenders for years!!!

  44. Depending on the time of day, I would either make this milkshake (looks amazing) or a fruit smoothie for breakfast!

  45. I would make one of my favorite cranberry, raspberry smoothies. SOOOOOOO good! Love your food blog!

  46. The first thing I’d make? This Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake, of course! It looks delicious! ๐Ÿ™‚ After that, probably some mixed drinks, like pina colada.

  47. First of all, this milkshake looks divine. Milkshakes are definitely a guilty pleasure…and a new blender would be extreeeemely helpful in making these indulgences more frequent!

    The first thing I would make? Well, after this shake, probably a strawberry yogurt smoothie. I love smoothies for breakfast, but my old, decrepit blender doesn’t do so well in the mornings. This would be a huge help!

  48. I’m so bad at making sauces for meals and blame our lack of blender for it. I never want to buy a cheapo one for fear that it’ll just break on me! Blendtec….I yearn for you!

  49. Probably a green smoothie because I make those everyday, followed by a toasted marshmallow milkshake. Because they go together right?

  50. I also follow Blendtec on Twitter. And funny enough? I actually did all these before the contest, too! Great giveaway, Maria and Josh!

  51. First thing I would make in this blender is either A) this milkshake or B) some type of margarita

    Recipe looks amazing!!

  52. I would make an ice cream shake like my grandma used to make. Tons of homemade ice cream and a little bit of milk. I miss these on hot summer days like we are having now.

  53. I like Blendtec on Fb too!! They always feature awesome recipes using their blender ๐Ÿ™‚

  54. Awesome giveaway! I have been so wanting a new nice blender, as mine is a cheap one that I can’t use for half of what I want to use it for! I think the first thing I would make is nut butter! I haven’t been able to do that with my current blender.

  55. I would make a chocolate chocolate chip brownie milkshake! Although Caroline’s idea of blended iced coffee sounds scrumptious too.

  56. I also am a fan of twopeasandtheirpod on facebook. ๐Ÿ™‚ Yay! Thanks for the giveaway!

  57. The first thing I would make is our favorite Kool-aid slushie recipe. The second thing is that yummy milkshake!

    Already a fan on Facebook.

  58. I would love a blendtec. I plan on giving it to my newlywed daughter and I’m quite sure she would do daily green smoothies and many other yummy creations.

  59. I would make milkshakes and fruit smoothies – lots of them with lots of different ingredients. I would love one of these!

  60. This milkshake looks incredible, Maria! I have heard so many good things about Blendtec blenders and would love one in my kitchen. What would I make first? I think a smoothie would be in order.

  61. It would be oh so tempting to make this milkshake… but I might also make a strawberry smoothie or maybe even salsa – I’m feeling indecisive this morning!!

  62. The first thing I would make would probably be this Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake!! It looks fantastic!!!

  63. The first thing I’ll make? Hm… probably a huge chocolate banana shake! I love them, and I have oh-so-many frozen bananas in my freezer begging to be used.

  64. I would make smoothies. Nothing is more annoying than having a smoothie with un-drinkable chunks of ice. I obviously have a ghetto blender.

  65. Wow! Well, I am a huge fan of double chocolate Oreo shakes! Chocolate ice cream, chocolate syrup, Oreos. Doesn’t get much better than that! This is certainly the first thing I’d whip up. Your chocolate chip cookie milkshake would be next up on the list! ๐Ÿ™‚

  66. I would make a fruit smoothie for sure…love this….follower on facebook and also via email…..THANKS for sharing with us….

  67. i would absolutely make a green smoothie with all the sprouts i’ve been sprouting. i have been lusting after BLENDTEC for ages. oh how i want one!

  68. The first thing I’d make–I’d be really tempted to make your ccc milkshake. I’ve also been wanting to make some chocolate almond butter I saw on a blog.

  69. The first thing I would make with the blender was a smoothie. I haven’t had a great homemade smoothie in years because nothing will cut up the ice.

  70. The first thing I would make is this amazing choc chip cookie milkshake! Thanks for the opportunity!!!

  71. First thing I would make in a new blender? The pasta sauce that I was trying to make when the motor on my old one burned out this weekend. ๐Ÿ™

    I’ve got my fingers crossed – thanks for the opportunity!

  72. The first thing I will blend will definitely be some sort of frozen cocktail to enjoy in this great weather!

  73. Oooh, this is hard but the first thing I would make would be a strawberry-banana milkshake! They are my favorite and my hand-me-down blender from the ’70s just can’t hack it.

  74. I think the smoothie button would have to be given a whirl….my two boys are on a serious smoothie bender!

  75. I’m am email subscriber! I’d love to win – I can’t keep a blender working for more than a year! This may be just what I need!!

  76. I would definitely make tons of smoothies. My sad little blender can’t handle frozen fruit or ice, so it’s pretty much useless.

  77. If I won? I’d make Zombie Juice and youtube it to go with my plea to Blendtec to try to blend zombies on their Will it Blend? show! ๐Ÿ™‚ Then I’d wash the Blender and make my family milkshakes. I’m thinking the lovely recipe you posted. Our blender broke and we’re really missing our Milkshake Mondays!

  78. I would make a super delicious smoothie to chase away this heat and humidity… and celebrate that tomorrow’s the first day of summer!

  79. My blender broke a few weeks ago and I’ve been missing my morning green smoothie. That is the first thing I’d make.

  80. If I won the blender I’d have to make that milkshake! My blender would die if I tried to blend cookies in it!

  81. The first thing I would make is a Green Monster Smoothie! I’m really terrible about getting green veggies in my diet, but I’m a sucker for a smoothie ๐Ÿ™‚

  82. I would make a smoothie! I make a smoothie almost every day for an afternoon snack and my blender is terrible. I have to add the ingredients gradually and stir and shake. I’d love to be able to dump everything in and push a button.

  83. First thing I would make would be a big banana/peanut butter milkshake. I’ve got a recipe I’ve been dying to try, but I don’t have a blender!

  84. I would make the vanilla milkshake and the cookies and cream- for the whole family! Love the large bowl!

  85. I would make a strawberry smoothie — so into strawberry season right now! Thanks for the great giveaway!

  86. I would make …
    1) babyfood! I had a BlendTec briefly right before I lost my job (therefore having to return it.) I miss being able to make quality babyfood!
    2) smoothies – I miss my morning green smoothies
    3) bread – we used it (for the brief time we had it) as a wheat grinder for fresh bread! mmm……

  87. If I were to win the blender, I’d make some 44-clove garlic soup. I made it once before and it was heavenly.

  88. I would make a limeade or lemon ice (a perfect treat for the heat here in AZ). I broke my blender awhile back and have been using my immersion blender since. I would LOVE this blender and would use it ALL the time. Thanks!!!

  89. I would love to have a blendtec! I think the first thing I’d make would be a wonderful frozen smoothie! My blender can never seem to handle the frozen fruit very well.

  90. Oh wow… it would be hard to decide what to make first! Probably a smoothie to test it out. But I would also love to make nut butters, puree soups, blend an iphone ๐Ÿ˜‰

  91. I would make tons of smoothies all summer long! I love a good blender and definitely need one!

  92. I would love to win this! My blender is terrible. The first thing I would blend would be a smoothie. My blender takes forever to even blend up a smoothie.

  93. Ooooh! I would probably make a strawberry smoothie. I love strawberries, and this time of year is perfect for them!

  94. Me and my fiance will be getting married soon and this is something we wanted for our new house. We both love fruit smoothies, so I would make a delicious strawberry and banana smoothie with some frozen vanilla yogurt!!

  95. I love blending smoothies. My current blender however, does not love it : ) I need to upgrade it! This would an awesome upgrade!

  96. I would make smoothies and milkshakes {any and all flavors} every day… Thanks for the opportunity… ๐Ÿ˜€

  97. I’d make a smoothie (just like most everyone else!) with pineapple, strawberries, and orange juice. I love my blender for everything BUT anything that requires ice (like a smoothie, of course), so having one that did that for me would be awesome.

  98. I would make my mom’s breakfast smoothie. She has a Blentec and I’m completely jealous. Mine is nearing replacement-ville.

  99. I would normally say that I would make a raspberry and peach smoothie if I had a Blendtec – but after reading your recipe for chocolate chip cookie milkshakes I might have to go with that instead! ๐Ÿ™‚

  100. This milkshake looks heavenly! I would definitely make frozen hot chocolate first. It’s one of my favorite blended drinks.

  101. Give me the blender and I’d make your spinach and feta hummus because I may or may not be addicted to it. Goes perfectly with homemade wheat thin crackers. YUM!!!

  102. I would make these chocolate chip cookie milkshakes–my daughter would LOVE them! Then it would be fruit smoothies for my little boy. ๐Ÿ™‚

  103. The first thing I would make would likely be a smoothie unless it was a hot summer afternoon and then blended margaritas might be the answer. A good dependable blender is hard to come by but worth it’s weight in gold. We have tried many but they typically don’t last.

  104. We made crepes yesterday that would have been so much better in a great blender. Maybe I’d try those again!

  105. My brother is getting his wisdom teeth pulled this week and plans on subsisting off of milkshakes for as long as possible. If I made this for him, I think it would make his week! Awesome recipe!

  106. I have been drinking “green drinks” every morning….it has done wonders for my health. I would make one of those!

  107. I would love to blend a strawberry banana smoothie without have to knock the blender around to get it done.

  108. I saw a blendtec demo at Sam’s once and they made this really nice soup without having to heat/cook anything. The blender did it all (granted it wasn’t piping hot, but still really good) and I have been dying to try it ever since!

  109. I would probably make either an oreo milkshake or a brownie milkshake-love chocolate and our blender we have can’t handle much.

  110. If I had a Blendtec Blender, I would OBVIOUSLY make this chocolate chip cookie shake! It looks amazing.

  111. With it being so hot out, the first thing I would make would be a smoothie and the second item I would make would be either hummus or baba ganoush.

  112. I know this is boring but I think I would make a smoothie. I burned my blender out a year ago by blending carrot parsnip soup. It was a sad day. I have since bought and immersion blender but it isn’t the same for smoothies. I miss them so, so, so much!

  113. I’m having trouble leaving a comment, so if this is a duplicate…sorry! If I had a Blendtec blender, I would OBVIOUSLY make this chocolate chip cookie shake! Yum, it looks amazing. ๐Ÿ™‚

  114. I would make crepes. I have been craving sweet and savory crepes and they are so easy when you whip up the batter in a blender.

  115. If I won this blender, I would have my husband make a chocolate milkshake. He is the “milkshake maker” in our family. Even now, our grown daughter talks about the milkshakes her Daddy made for her!

  116. I would make a green smoothie! It would be so nice to have a blender. My current one is missing the top..

  117. I loved your idea for cookie milkshakes. I think I will make a milkshake with a slice of homemade key lime pie!

  118. I think it would have to be pina coladas. We just got back from a vacation at the beach and I miss it so much!

  119. Wow. What a treat this milk shake is! I haven’t had a milk shake in awhile, so I may need to whip-one up soon.

  120. I would make all sorts of smoothies with this bad boy! And maybe try my hand at slushies as well, because my blender is not fond of ice.

  121. This looks so amazing! If I won the blender I would make a fresh fruit smoothie of some kind. Yum!

  122. I would probably make baby food in my belndtec for my wee one BUT I would LOVE to make this milkshake for ME! YUM!

  123. I dream about owning a Blendtec!! Espcecially since my roommate is hogging the blender in our apartment. The first thing I would make is definitely a smoothie.. I want to try out that ice-crushing power!!

  124. I would definitely make a banana, peanut butter, chocolate chip milkshake, may favorite. My blender is slow and clunky so a new one would be great!

  125. This recipe looks amazing, but I would have to make a chocolate banana milkshake first, my favorite!!

  126. I would make some sort of fruit smoothie. I love throwing a bunch of different fruits into the blender with some vanilla yogurt or vanilla icecream and making a delicious drink snack out of it. ๐Ÿ™‚

  127. The first thing I would make in one of these is a random fruit smoothie. I would take a bunch of ice, whatever fruit I happen to have laying around, and any fruit juice in the fridge. It would most likely be a raspberry/strawberry/banana/rhubarb smoothie because that is what I have right now.

  128. Not sure if I had to post here or on the respective channels, but I signed up for and liked and subscribed to all the fun stuff above! Yay!

  129. I totally want a blentec! I was hoping DH would get me one for mother’s day but he didn’t. Now I’m waiting for them to come to my costco again so I can get one.
    I can’t even decide what I’d make first either a smoothie, ice cream, or soup. Probably all 3 one right after the other. ๐Ÿ™‚

  130. I would make a strawberry banana smoothie — everyone’s favorite at our house! And then we would definitely try the chocolate chip milkshake — thinking that would become a favorite right away!

  131. Triple digits are rapidly approaching here, so I could definitely go for some fruity blended drinks, especially margaritas!

  132. Love this milkshake! I think I’d have to be boring and make a strawberry-banana shake. They’re my favorite!

  133. Well heck! It has FINALLY hit the perfect 80 degrees here in Boise and that means fruit smoothie’s for everyone! (that’s what I would make)

  134. I would make a chocolate banana protein shake for my hubby, because I’m a nice wife like that, and then probably a smoothie for me! ๐Ÿ™‚

  135. I “Like” Blendtec on Facebook. I would love to make almond butter in my new Blendtec blender!

  136. I would like to make a request: HEALTHIER RECIPES PLEASE

    This milkshake packs about 980 calories, 55 g of fat, 92 g of sugar (thats 22 packets of sugar). For 2 servings as you state in your recipe this is for 2-3 servings. And this doesn’t include any garnish like whip cream and extra chips or cookie crumbles.

    I wouldn’t serve this to my family…I understand a treat every once in a while but this is horrendous. I am sure its tasty but not worth the damage to ones body. If I were to re-make this in to a healthier treat I would do the following:

    Convert to plant based milks like almond, soy, hemp (less fat and sugars)
    Use natural means of sugars like bananas (frozen) or dates
    Use carob chips or unsweetened cocoa

    Just a request…

  137. I just “Like”ed you on Facebook, but if I won the blendtec blender I’d have to change it to LOVE.

  138. I like Two Peas and Their Pod as well as Blentec on FB. I check this blog each for great recipes and ideas. I have tried many of them and the recipes are such a hit with my family and friends!

    My children love banana, yogurt, wheat germ and fresh berry shakes before school starts. This blender would be used very fittingly!

    Thanks!

  139. i would make a banana milkshake. then a cookie milkshake. then a cupcake milkshake. it’s summertime!! have to have milkshakes. and then i would try making some creamy soup too because i can eat soup any day of the year!

  140. i like you on facebook. do i get additional entries for liking you guys in real life too?? ๐Ÿ˜›

  141. I make a strawberry-banana-pineapple smoothie every single morning for breakfast – and I make it in my food processor. It’s high time I got a proper blender and let me cuisinart take a break… Would love to win!

  142. I would make smoothies for my kids. It’s the only way I can get them to eat all of their fruits and veggies!

  143. This sounds completely uninteresting. But I would make a soup. If I got a blender this week it would be a butterbean and basil soup. I have an incredibly cheap food processor that is held together by masking tape and just about works if you tip it on its side but, you know, its effort and its been a while since I had a soup that was nice and smooth like I like it!
    And its been YEARS since I had a smoothie – trying to whack one up in the food processor of fail just makes bits of fruit stick to the sides and judder underneath the non-contacting blades!
    So I might well make this beautiful sounding milkshake. It sounds divine.

  144. It’s hard to say what I would make first – so many uses for a blender. But, since it’s summer, probably a nice cool smoothie or milkshake – yum, now I’m hungry!

  145. I would make a spinach smoothie… I’ve had them before and it’s the only way I like spinach. Because I participate in a produce co-op I constantly have spinach that I have no clue what to do with. A Blendtech would be my solution! It would make us more healthy and less wasteful!

  146. I have a smoothie everyday since I started my 2nd trimester. Ours doesn’t blend ice or even bananas very well, so this would be heavenly!

  147. First off, my husband dreams about owning one of these blenders. Every time they demo at costco he is convinced we are going to buy one. He will sit there for HOURS watching them make everything under the sun.

    Now, to answer your question. The first thing I would probably make is a juice; however, I would be very tempted to make one of the hot pureed soups. If it was up to my husband to make the first thing I think he would do a demo in our kitchen, making the ice cream, juice, smoothie, soup, etc! lol. *fingers crossed I win–it would make for a great anniversary gift!

  148. I would love to make a green smoothie! However, I am sure my kids would take over and the first thing made would be a milkshake of some sort.
    Thanks!

  149. I would make a green smoothie! We eat a lot of smoothies in our house and tend to burn up blenders. This blender has been on my wish list for a long time…..the green smoothies do not turn out well in our magic bullet!

  150. Why, I would make a minty milkshake, because right now I’m all about the minty deliciousness of mint! ๐Ÿ˜€ And then I’d make this milkshake!

  151. I’d probably make a smoothie first, but this milkshake would soon follow! Yum. Thanks for the giveaway, I’m so done with crappy cheap blenders!

  152. On a weekday, the first thing I’d make would be a healthy smoothie. On a weekend, it will be a vegan “Irish” frappucino.

  153. I would make a smoothie or a milkshake. I like them very very thick so the blender has to be able to do its job well.

  154. I would make this Chocolate Chip Cookie Milk Shake first thing!! This sounds awesome as well as the Blender. After I splurged on this milk shake I am sure there would be a smoothie a day for quite some time. I mean really if it will do the smoothies without the hassle I am up to it:)

  155. My toddler loves smoothies and it’s a great way to get her to eat yogurt so I would make her a smoothies – probably with frozen chunks of mangoes!

  156. If I got to the blender first, I’d make a chocolate peanut butter banana smoothie. My absolute favorite!

    If my husband got to the blender first he’d probably do his own version of “will it blend” with goodness knows what from around the house. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  157. I would definitely make this milkshake.. this is something my roomie and I would devour!! And of course my daily tropical fruit smoothie!!!

  158. Ooo, nice blender! I have been wanting to make a homemade frappucino. That’s what I’d try out first! June 25 is my birthday, I hope I win this as a present!

  159. I love your site! I pathetically don”t have a blender, so I would go crazy & make everything all at once! Lol

  160. I would make my absolute favorite smoothie… banana, plain yogurt, frozen berries, vanilla protein powder, and water. Yummmm. Probably throw in some homemade peanut butter, too which would be made in the blender so I guess that means peanut butter would be the first thing to make in the blender!

  161. I would love to make the Green Guru Smoothie as well as others and of course your chocolate chip cookie milk shake
    Green Guru Smoothie
    1 California Avocado
    3 oz Romaine Lettuce Leaves
    1 medium cucumber with Peel
    1 cup Pure Coconut Water
    1 medium Banana
    1 tsp Xagave Organic Raw Agave Nectar

  162. I would love a new blender! I think mine is starting to die on me from my constant smoothie making! The first thing I would make would probably be a tropical smoothie ๐Ÿ™‚

  163. I would definitely try the chocolate chip cookie milkshake recipe first…then probably a strawberry-blueberry-banana smoothie! Thanks for the giveaway!

  164. The first thing I would make would be a big ‘ol cherry-chocolate malt, with fresh cherries blended in! Not just a milkshake, mind you, it has to be a malt!

  165. The first thing I would make is nut butter. My blender now can’t really handle that kind of load and I have been dreaming about nut butter. Ohhh and almond milk. I am tired of the store bought kinds and would love to start making my own.

  166. I do believe the first thing I’d make is your chocolate cookie shake! If I had a better blender I’d be making shakes all the time. My blender is a KA and I’ve had it for quite some time but it just doesn’t measure up – I usually use my food processor to make shakes!

  167. First thing we would blend is a lotsa greens smoothie! I’ve never had a blender that can handle them like I’ve heard the blendtec can! What a gift that would be!! Thank for the chance to win :)!

  168. Well, I was thinking it would be a fruit smoothie, but after seeing the chocolate chip cookie milkshake, I think I’ve changed my mind.

  169. Every morning I make a green smoothie with coconut water, banana, mango, pineapple, and lots and lots of spinach!

  170. My trusty vitamix just bit the dust, and I’ve been dying to try the blendtec! I woud make my kids’ and my favorite green “milkshake.” Milk, a frozen banana, LOTS of fresh spinach, a bit of coconut oil, a dash of cinnamon and ice. Yummy!

  171. I know this is completely unoriginal, but I would make this milkshake, yum! Or baby food, I’m constantly making baby food ๐Ÿ™‚

  172. The first thing I would make is a giant smoothie! My blender is in dire need of replacement because it keeps coming apart at the bottom when I try to make smoothies, so I end up with smoothie all over my kitchen counters!

  173. My very first recipe would be for a margarita to sip while I ponder the hundreds of other ways to use my blender!

  174. I would make a chocolate milk shake made with chocolate ice cream and chocolate milk . . . mmmmmmmmmmmmm! I hope I win!

  175. Hmmmm. What would I make? Some sort of smoothie for my boys for a decent, school’s-out-for-the-summer-not-rushing-to-get-out-of-the-door breakfast. What a beauty that blender is! It’s way out of my league!

  176. I would most definitely make a fruit and yogurt smoothie, my favorite, as well as my toddlers! Then I would make this recipe because it looks amazing!!

  177. I desperately want a Blendtec but can’t yet justify it. I’d make my daily kefir smoothies in the blender. Best thing for my health ever!

  178. I would make my favorite pomegranite margaritas! My blender doesn’t do a good enough job chopping ice so I don’t like to make them at home–just not the same!

  179. I’ll make Orange Julius with my family. It’s one of our favorite movie night treats! Thanks for the give away!

  180. A summer fruit smoothie to share with my 4 yr old who loves to “mix stuff up”! Or maybe a cool summer pina colada to share with my husband. Anything would be made easier with a blendtec!

  181. Well. Using cooking utensils at home is not ‘optional’ in our household due to celiac disease and other food allergies. I lust after the Blendtec blender, so I’ll hop into your giveaway!
    The first think I would make in my Blendtec blender: Blueberry Vice-cream (coconut milk) – Chocolate Chip Cookie (Gluten-free, vegan, et cetera) milkshake. Quite a mouthful! I guess I’ll just call it the Ellie Surprise.. MMmmmmmm.

  182. I would blend a strawberry banana smoothie! Sprinkling chocolate chips on top would make it even nicer!

  183. Hmm… I think I would make a smoothie actually. =) I’ve got my eye on a nectarine smoothie these days.

  184. The first thing I would make is some kind of fruit smoothie. I’m pregnant with my first child and have had cravings for cold and fruity things since the start.

  185. I would L.O.V.E. a Blendtec blender! Fresh strawberry margaritas in the summer and the best cheese soup ever in the winter. Thanks for the chances to win!!

  186. I am a major ice cream fan so I would have to initiate the blender by making an oreo milkshake with homemade oreos, yum!

  187. I also followed two peas and their pod on Twitter. That should do it, right! lol Thanks so much for everything!!

  188. If I won this awesome blender, I’d use it to make horchata for my girlfriend. She loves the sweet, cinnamon-y taste, especially on a hot summer day! Ah, nothing like horchata to go along with some phe-NOM-inal al pastor and barbacoa tacos. Especially if they come from a taco truck!

  189. I would make a green smoothie! Give them to my kids all the time. They eat veggies great but for leafy ones its helps.

  190. I would make a smoothie with lots of spinach and hide it with berries so my little girl wouldn’t know!!!!!

  191. I’d make a smoothie with a banana, fresh berries from the farmers market, a splash of coconut water, and a handful of homegrown spinach! ๐Ÿ™‚

    This blender is actually on our baby registry so I can make my own baby food for the lil babe arriving this winter!

  192. Currently using an old, leaky, hand-me-down blender, so an upgrade would be appreciated. First in the queue? I’ve been wanting to try a “green monster” smoothie, so I will probably start with that.

  193. First will probably be a green smoothie (almond milk, spinach, banana, frozen blueberries). But second will be a cookie milkshake!

  194. What delicious looking recipes. I can’t wait to try them out….now if I only had a blender…….:0)

  195. I would see what happens when peanut butter, nutella, marshmallow fluff, jam, chocolate sauce, and two frozen bananas get whipped up in the blender.

  196. I would make a fresh berry smoothie and drink it out of a bendy straw and pretend it was an ice cream shake.

  197. I already subscribe to your RSS feed but I’m not sure if that counts so I signed up for email too ๐Ÿ™‚

  198. If I were to win this blender (and I would be SO ecstatic if I did because I’m a poor college student) I think I would make either an orange Julius smoothie or a strawberry milkshake, my favorite!

  199. Funny, I was just going to do a healthy cookie dough milkshake recipe today…but changed my mind, lol. This looks amazing!

    I would make…a green smoothie! Yum!

  200. I would make a skinny-tini ๐Ÿ™‚ My friend made this recipe that involves Crystal Light and vodka for an afternoon adult beverage by the pool ๐Ÿ™‚

  201. I’d make THAT milkshake! Despite all of the sugar cookies you see, chocolate chip cookies are our favorites! ๐Ÿ™‚

  202. The first thing I would make would be a healthy ‘green’ smoothie – strawberries, yogurt, melon, flax seed oil, and spinach! My blender broke, so I’m no longer able to enjoy my smoothie every morning ๐Ÿ™

  203. I would actually give this blender to my sister because she does not have one… but I can almost guarantee that the first thing that she would make is a smoothie! She is training for a marathon and has told me that she wishes she could make smoothie for after her runs in the heat.

  204. Well, the milkshake looks great, BUT it’d probably be a smoothie. I use a blender every day for a smoothie.

  205. And lastly, I follow Blendtec on twitter!

    ps – I realllllly want to win this Blendtec for my sister!

  206. I would make smoothies for every meal…I love them and never make them because I get so annoyed with my wimpy blender!

  207. I am a Green Smoothie girl and make one every single day but believe it or not I don’t have a blend tec or a vita mix and am dying for a better blender! This would be a perfect fit for me.

  208. I’d whip up a batch of cool and spicy gazpacho…or a frozen protein shake…or crushed ice for a snowcone…so many options! I’m not sure what I’d make first!

  209. I would absolutely love the opportunity to make smoothies in a blendtec. I have experienced the same problem as you regarding the blenders all burning out. Thanks for the opportunity to win….love your site. ๐Ÿ™‚

  210. Oooooh, You got me hooked on that milkshake! I would make that first! Hope I win ๐Ÿ™‚

  211. oooooh! You got me hooked on that milkshake! That is the first thing I would make. Hope I win! LOVE your blog!

  212. A chocolate covered strawberry “milkshake”- vegan coconut ice cream with chunks of dark chocolate and fresh strawberries!

  213. What a great giveaway! I would make a fruit/veggie smoothie. We’ve been wanting a blendtec for a long time!

  214. The first thing I’d love to try in the Blendtec blender would be banana ice cream…..seeing all these blogs talking about using frozen bananas to make ice cream, as a low fat/low calorie alternative to ice cream. YUM!

  215. I think the better question is what wouldn’t I use it for? But if I had to chose right this moment I’d make a malt…gotta love summertime!

  216. Oh the many, many things I would make. Since I live in Houston, and its about 105 every day, and I’m 7 months pregnant… I can guess that I would be making a lot of these milkshakes ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks for the great giveaway!!

  217. Well, I’m really here to test out the commenting but if could win a blender while doing so, count me in! ๐Ÿ™‚ hehe. I’d totally make a strawberry milkshake. If I haven’t completely missed strawberry season, if that’s the case then peach it is!

  218. I liked you/Blendtec on fbook and followed you both on Twitter. The first thing I would make with the Blendtec blender would be a blueberry milkshake with all the fresh blueberries in my fridge!

  219. I should probably say a fruit smoothie or something healthy.

    But let’s be real here.

    I love shakes. And I love chocolate chip cookies. The fact that you’ve mixed them and liked them is a sign that I, too, would go crazy with ice cream treats in such a monster machine!

  220. I am moving out of my parents house (for the first time!) and need a blender, this would be great instead of the cheap ones in my budget! The first thing I would make is a strawberry banana smoothie! Perfect for summer!

  221. Oh my goodness, I would love to win this – I’ve been wanting to buy a high powered blender for so long ๐Ÿ™‚ I’d make some raw vegan cookie dough balls(they have nuts, healthier sweeteners and things in them instead of flour, sugar, etc). I already make some that taste amazing but my blender can never blend them to the smoothness that they should be.

  222. I subscribe via RSS, too ๐Ÿ™‚ Love that milkshake! Chocolate chips are my favorite cookie, too ๐Ÿ™‚

  223. Definitely this milkshake! And, I’d love to see how it handled my morning berry, spinach, and yogurt smoothies.. probably much better than the “shake and settle” blender we have now!

  224. I’m totally lame but I would try your chocolate chip cookie milkshake! Or maybe strawberry milkshake.. because they are my favorites! Thank you for a great giveaway!

  225. I would obviously blend an iPod first…once done, though…I’d go straight for some homemade Frappucino-style ground ice drinks!

  226. fruit smoothie or these cookie milkshakes seeing as how that looks pretty darn delicious! ๐Ÿ™‚

  227. I would use that awesome thing to make edamame hummus. My current blender is just not cutting it (literally).

  228. I would love a new blender–one that doesn’t stall when I try to make smoothies. So, I guess, a smoothie would be the first thing that I would try.

    Your cookie shake looks simply scrumptious !

  229. That milkshake looks delicious! I have some banana cream liqueur in the fridge that makes a frozen mixed drink if you blend it with some ice – it sounds like that Blendtec could make it with the perfect consistency!

  230. The first thing I’m going to make with my Blendtec blender is your Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake. It look sooooo yummy!

  231. I would totally make this milkshake! It looks INCREDIBLE! It combines 2 of my favorite desserts: cookies and ice cream!

  232. I would make a green smoothie! Kale, spinach, oranges, blueberries…anything really! I’ve wanted a nice blender for so long now, dang college student budget! :]

  233. I would make the best summer tomato gazpacho ever, blend it up and enjoy it on my porch with a cold beer in the other hand.

  234. I want this SO bad! I would be making some tasty milkshakes first…followed by some healthy smoothies…YUM!

  235. well that’s easy!…….I’d make your chocolate chip cookie shake!!

    WOW, my girls would LOOOVE this!

  236. This milkshake.. but then I would probably make some homemade baby food too. With a baby due in just a few weeks, I better start learning how!

  237. As fabulous as your milkshake looks, I’d probably make a Dr. Oz green drink first. Currently I throw all the ingredients in my food processor and then move them to my blender to get the final smooth texture – I’d love to have just one machine that did it all! And after drinking a healthy smoothie full of veggies, I’d be set for a sweet treat like your chocolate chip cookie milk shake! Thanks for such a great giveaway!

  238. Peas. Yes..Peas! I would want to see if they blend up to a complete puree – unlike other blenders I’ve tried! (And yes, it is for baby food! ๐Ÿ™‚

  239. I love your blog on email and I would make a fruit smoothie first and then superfine my sugar and then grind my oats and then……..well so many things if I had a blender.

  240. I love your recipes and all that you share with the readers. Blendtec sounds great… this I would make one of our homemade fruit smoothies! This sounds like a wonderful addition to our kitchen! I would love to win one!! I would certainly tell all of my friends about it. It looks like it would blend up the frozen berries, milk, juice and bananas in no time!! I hope we win… and thanks for the chance!!
    Blessings! Amy

  241. I would make a protein shake for my husband. He has ALS and I try to make him protein or Creatine drinks several times a week. Thanks for the chance to win a Blendtec!

  242. I would make a green smoothie, because my old blender failed so miserably at them. That old blender was donated to Salvation Army to give me an excuse for a new one ๐Ÿ™‚

  243. As we build a new home and live out of a furnished condo with our things in storage, it’s a bit like housing limbo right now. We were excited to see a blender upon arriving here, and decided to make a banana smoothie the first night. We added the ice, banana, milk and a dash of cinnamon, then flipped the switch and nothing. Never thought to check if the blender actually worked… So we’ve been here for two months and we are sorely craving our simple banana smoothie.

    Cheers,

    *Heather*

  244. My son and I love to make smoothies with frozen fruit. The fruit always gets stuck in the blades. I would love a good blender.

  245. oooh. yum. this looks delicious, but if i had a Blendtec i would make a banana milkshake. they are my absolute favorite.

  246. While I know my husband would definitely be using it for a protein shake, I’d have to say I’d make chimichurri sauce to top some grilled steaks or a glass of strawberry basil lemonade. Both are delicious in their own way!

  247. Dependsโ€”if I’m making the milkshake for myself, I’d probably try this cookie milkshake. If I’m making it to share with my husband, he’d probably request a fruit smoothie.

  248. Fantastic milkshake! Hmmm, first thing I would make? Well, given the amount of basil we planted this year…Pesto!

  249. That milkshake is genius! I was actually just thinking today that I was craving my favorite chocolate chip cookies. This will be a perfect way to use up some extras ๐Ÿ™‚

  250. Dude, I’d totally try to blend Chuck Norris… what about Chuck Norris versus Sarah Palin? Yeah, totally. ๐Ÿ™‚

  251. The first thing is a strawberry milkshake!! My blender broke, and I have been missing it for awhile!

  252. Love, love love this site. Great food and great copy. I would probably make an organic peach and kale smoothie, using some peach or apricot nectar and ice. Not as pretty as your cookie milkshake mut every bit as tasty and more alkaline.

  253. Definitely a smoothie! Blueberry-raspberry, my favourite. I have all the ingredients on hand right now.

  254. I think I’d make the base for some kind of ice cream. Last time, it was avocado ice cream. Maybe another version of that.

  255. Smoothie with spinach, banana, mixed berries, pumpkin seed protein powder, cinnamon, cocoa powder, almond milk and sunshine ๐Ÿ™‚

    Or banana soft serve…

  256. I would make a smoothie: frozen banana, fresh strawberries, cantaloupe, homemade yohurt, milk, a tiny bit of turmeric and a dash of cinnamin. No sugar!

  257. Hello, blender of my dreams! I would make the smoothie I made for the first time this morning (I can’t stop thinking about it!). Frozen banana, almond butter, almond extract, flax seeds and milk. Yum.

  258. Hmm…what would I put in the magical blender? Well, I would definitely try your cookie shake (possibly all 100 varieties) and it would MAGICALLY release the calories into the air so I wouldn’t get fat!!!! Your shake is SCREAMING at me right now and I want it so badly!!
    However, I don’t have a magical blender….so………. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  259. This looks delicious! Just looking at it makes me crave it! I would definitely make this milkshake if not a spinach smoothie, might sound gross but it’s scrumptious!

  260. What a fantastic idea! My kids will love it, my middle son loves dunking his chocolate chip cookies in milk so this will make him so happy!

  261. So I know this isn’t exciting but I would totally go on a smoothie kick. The blender I have now leaves the inevitable ice chunk surprise in the bottom of every glass (not cool).

  262. I would definitely make a milkshake and the chocolate chip cookie milkshake looks like a great first choice ๐Ÿ™‚

  263. my husband would make milkshakes, any flavor at any time of day (he’s the one who does the blending here ๐Ÿ™‚ )

  264. I would love to make a milkshake that I don’t have to fight my blender. My kids would probably prefer a koolaid icee. Tough choice!

  265. First on my Blendtec list would be a strawberry smoothie! My current blender doesn’t do very well with ice or frozen fruits, but we have these where I work and they are awesome!

  266. Strawberry smoothie. Pick your own season has just begun and I have more strawberries than I know what to do with!

  267. I would make a recipe I saw that is a copy of White Chocolate Wonderful peanut butter! And then I would make a strawberry/banana smoothie! GREAT giveaway – I would love to have this blender!

  268. I would make a Coconut Mango smoothie! Thanks for the chance at winning such an awesome blender!

  269. The first think I would do with my blender is to gift it to my sister. She is in poor health and is taking care of our mom. She has been out of work for 2 years and is not able to find a job. I use the blendtec every day and love it for green smoothies, soups, butters, dressings, etc. I would love to be able to give one to her so she can experience the wonderful health benefits that I am experiencing since I began using my blender ever day.

    My favorite is a green smoothie with spinach, grapes, apple, cucumber, and berries if I have them. Oh and a banana.

    Peace,

  270. I would make a smoothie…duh? JUST KIDDING! Although I would eventually make a smoothie, first I would make a homemade pasta sauce using fresh tomatoes from my garden! MANGIA!

  271. I would make a strawberry banana smoothie, they are my all time favorite and now that I’m pregnant, I crave them everyday, but have been SO tired and worn out that I usually end up buying them because it’s so much work to chop everything up small enough to blend!

  272. I follow Blentec on Twitter and Facebook, two peas and their pod on Facebook and Twitter and I suscribe by email!

  273. I’d say the first thing I’d make with a new Blendtec would be a rich, thick pistachio milkshake. Mmm!

  274. the 1st thing i would make would be a smoothie – type to depend on what fruit was currently “in season” when the blender came. most likely peach or blueberry or a combo. yummmmmmmmy.

  275. oh, i’m dying! this cookie milkshake looks absolutely delicious.
    i would be a dream come true if i won a blendtec. i’d make my family’s salsa verde which i’ve been craving for forever. ๐Ÿ™‚

  276. Oh goodness, we NEED a new blender! I would be blending up post-workout smoothies alllllll summer long!!

  277. I don’t have a blender, and with margarita season upon us, this would be perfect!!!

  278. I would definintely make a fricking sweet power shake with all of the awesome summer berries, and just enough healthy stuff to get Real Ultimate Power

  279. The first thing I would make would probably be a milkshake-either this one (OMG COOKIES!) or a peanut butter one, which I know my boyfriend would want ๐Ÿ™‚

  280. Definitely a chocolate chip banana milkshake. They remind me of my childhood and I want simple things like milkshakes to remind our children of their childhood ๐Ÿ™‚

  281. I would make gazpacho–so great on a hot day like today (almost as great as a milkshake of course ;P).

  282. I think I would go nuts making smoothies…and I MUST try this milkshake. I wish I had a blendtec right now!

  283. I would retry making a blueberry fruit smoothie. Last time I made a smoothie I used a smoothie maker I had in college, and I apparently did not clean the spout well enough and gave myself food poisoning and was sick for 2 days! Having a blender with no spout, that blends perfectly, and is super easy to clean would be so perfect! Yes, please.

  284. I would probably make my husband a chocolate milkshake!! He is not the “sweets’ type of person ( LIKE I AM!!) so there are few sweet things he likes and milkshakes is on the top!
    Then I would probably make myself a green smoothie! I’ve been trying to get more veggies and fruit in my diet and I’ve found smoothies to be an excellent way to do that!
    I came across your site from foodgawker.com , and glad to say I did ๐Ÿ™‚
    Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of your give away! AND thank you for the awesome recipes!

  285. I would love to win this blender!!! My kids love milkshakes and I would start by making this one!!

  286. I would make a fruit smoothie! My two boys love smoothies and I love making them but our blender isn’t the best!

  287. Well, as tempting as it might be to blend myself up a nice Ipad…I’m thinking I will probably go with a fresh fruit smoothie instead =)

  288. Well, I would make a Chocoalte Chip Cookie Milkshake, of course ๐Ÿ˜‰

    And then a healthy fruit smoothie of blueberries, strawberries, peaches, apple juice, greek yogurt, and a splash of vanilla. Yum!

  289. I would definitely be making a shake! I love them and have been craving anything chocolate lately! Yummy!

  290. If I win this blender, my wonderful boyfriend will use it to make horchata. Wouldn’t that be great? Yes, yes it would.

  291. I would probably make some kind of shake! Most likely plain chocolate, but maybe this shake if I have extra cookies lying around!

  292. We have been so hot and dry here in Texas, the first thing I would make is a frozen margarita!! That should cool things down!!

  293. I would make a green smoothie! I have a hard time getting my girls to eat veggies in their natural form, so I have really wanted to get a blendtec blender to try and sneak a few veggies in their diet.

  294. Oh I would put this baby to use immediately! I would make a cookies n cream milkshake first I think…

  295. I would make my Arbonne protein shakes that I have at least once a day! I have been looking for a reliable, great blender…not so easy to come by!

  296. I will make a fruit smoothie because it is summer and that is just what you do when it’s warm outside!

  297. I want to make sauces! I made a peanut dipping sauce this weekend and my blender sucks… could have used this one ๐Ÿ˜‰

  298. I love your chocolate chip cookie milkshake idea, and that would be next in line after trying a chocolate chip cookie DOUGH milkshake and possibly an OREO mint milkshake–my kids favorite flavors of ice cream! Boy! We LOVE our ice cream especially in this summer weather!

  299. I do not have a blender because I cannot find one that doesn’t break after a few uses. I would love to have a blendtec blender. I have wanted one for a long time. I would blend everything from soup to smoothies if I had one.

  300. The first thing I would make in my Blendtec blender would be a green coconut smoothie. YUMMO! And I like Blendtec on FB. Fingers and toes crossed…

  301. i’ve been thinking a lot lately about trying different versions of green monster smoothies. i hope i get the chance!

  302. I would like to try a spinach smoothie. On the other hand, it might be a hot fudge shake. Decisions, decisions.

  303. I’m boring but I’d go for a smoothie. I’m sure my husband could find something sharp and dangerous to try out though.

  304. I’ve been wanting a Blendtec forever! The first thing I would make with it is peanut butter! We go through it like crazy around here.

  305. Um, I have been dreaming of a blendtec for a LONG TIME. I think I would make everything just because I could! I’ve gone through three kitchen aid blenders in the past year–boo!! First off, I’d blend all the fruit in my freezer, and experiment with almonds to see how easy it is to make almond milk or a butter.

  306. I would make a fruit smoothie. Lots of fresh fruit, a handful of spinach, OJ, yougurt and ice and blend it up and love every drop. Thanks for a great giveaway.

  307. I would absolutely love to start cranking out some banana-berry smoothies and milkshakes now that the Southern California summer is kicking into gear. Since we are just a couple of college students, buying a blender has yet to be possible. Tasty please!

  308. The first thing I would make in my Blendtee Total Wildside Blender is a smoothie with plenty of frozen fruit, ice and coconut water.

  309. well, as much as I’ve love an iPod smoothie, I’m feeling old school. I’m going to go with orange julius – yum!

  310. I would have to make a milkshake first. I can’t think of a flavor I don’t like but I would have to try your Chocolate Chip Cookie Shake.

  311. The first thing I would make? My usual green smoothie that I make every morning! 2 bananas, strawberries, a dollop of yogurt, some orange juice and 2 cups of fresh spinach! Yum! After that, I’d probably get a little less healthy and make a thick, chocolate shake.

  312. I will make a strawberry daquiri! I picked a lot of strawberries & froze them so I deserve a delicious drink!

  313. I would make margaritas or a triple berry smoothie to refresh in this hot summer we’re having already.

  314. I love Blendtecs but sadly do not own one. I would totally make some killer green smoothies ๐Ÿ™‚

  315. The first thing I would make this summer is a strawberry milkshake made with our local sweet strawberries. The second thing would be hummus. Then, who knows?

  316. The first think I would make with my new Blendtec is the spinach ice cream. Yum. Next would be pancakes.

  317. Mmmm. I love smoothies so it would probably be that. I am still hoping to recreate my beloved Jamba Juice!

  318. I would make a Reese’s peanut butter cup shake, I would use vanilla bean ice cream, king size Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, and a spoonful of peanut butter. I would pour into a glass and top with cool whip and crumbled peanut butter cups. The perfect combination!

  319. The first thing I would make it my homemade sauce. It takes a lot of effort with my crappy blender, But with a blend tec I bet it would be so easy!!

  320. I make smoothies before work every day, so my first thing would be one of my blueberry spinach smoothies.

  321. I would make milkshakes with my grandsons – they’ve been asking for weeks but, I don’t have a blender!

  322. Wow – what an amazing looking milkshake! The first thing I’d make, after this milkshake, would probably be a fresh fruit smoothie. Thanks for sharing this recipe and giveaway, Maria! I hope your little pea pod is doing well. ๐Ÿ™‚

  323. The first thing I would make with my new blender would be some healthy summer-fruit smoothies for breakfast for me and my husband.

  324. The first thing I would make would be a smoothie, no doubt. It’s forecast to be 95ยบ today, and I need all the help I can get in staying cool!

  325. I would make lots of smoothies. We’re about to move to Texas & need a way to survive the heat ๐Ÿ™‚

  326. The first thing I would make would be this wonderful Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake (omg!!!), then I would use is during lambing season to make the milk replacer needed to feed orphaned lambs . Life would be so much easier!!

  327. I would make a fruit smoothie or blend up strawberries for home made freezer jam.. oh the things I could do with it!

  328. Awesome, awesome milkshake, I’m a cookie lover too! The only thing that might *possibly* be better is a cookie DOUGH milkshake. Just sayin’, if you want to give that a try in a few more months ๐Ÿ™‚

    I’m a big fan of my blender, I use it every single day. One of my favorite treats is to make thick, frosty protein shakes reminiscent of soft serve. I’d love to see how this comes out it in the Blendtec!

  329. Your shake looks insanely good Maria! I just stuck a bunch of leftover chocolate chip cookies in the freezer yesterday so I’m all set to make this one ๐Ÿ™‚

  330. Anything with ice, since I cant do that with my blender now….mudslides, frozen fruit drinks for the kids…

  331. I even subscribe via e-mail to Two Peas and Their Pod! That’s a lot of Two Peas and Their Pod and I LOVE it that way!

  332. The first thing I would blend would be Margaritas! I haven’t had a blender succeed with blending ice perfectly for blended drinks!

  333. The first thing I would make with this is a fruit smoothie with raspberries. The blender I have now is not powerful enough to pulverize the seeds so my kids don’t ever want me to add the berries. I LOVE them in my smoothies.

  334. I would make an amazing smoothie, and then I would have to try this milkshake! It looks so good!!!

  335. I love a good summer garden gazpacho, and that would be my first order of duty with a new Blendtec blender! Then, probably a frappe. Delicious.

  336. TOO fun! I can never decide my favorite cookie either! I think my kids would love love love this. Must try it this summer!

    Mwah ๐Ÿ˜‰

  337. I would probably make a smoothie. My 2 year old loves them and I love that he’s getting a good dose of calcium, fruit, and veggies (when I add spinach!)

  338. Oooh that is a tough one. I would probly make smoothies for my kitlens & some Cafe Rio-like pork sauce & then a mint-chocolate fleck shake-YUM! Can you tell I blend often?!

  339. Pina coladas! My parents have a Blendtec and this is what they always make for fiance and I when we visit!

  340. I would probably make some homemade ice cream base (on a peach kick right now) or maybe some strawberry. Yummy!

  341. That milkshake looks amazing! They have something similar at Starbucks, but this looks way better ๐Ÿ™‚ The first thing I’d whip up is some sort of iced coffee creation – it’s been my bevie of choice since the weather warmed up!

  342. I think the chocolate chip cookie milkshake looks like a great “first” thing to try!

    anabidia @ yahoo dot com

  343. I cannot lie, this chocolate chip cookie milkshake would be the first thing I’d want to make in my blender. I love chocolate, especially chocolate chip cookies, and this is something I could definitely see myself making.

  344. I would make some sort of smoothie or green monster. My blender now is horrible and doesn’t really blend anything so I haven’t been able to make any sort of smoothie in a long time!

  345. Oh goodness do I need to win this!!! My green smoothies, soups, milkshakes would all be soooo happy! I “Liked” Blendtec on FB

  346. I subscribe to Two Peas RSS feed (not the emails…does this still count?) Thanks for the chance!! xo

  347. Mmm…been craving a milkshake for quite a while now so I may just have to make this one in my new blender!

  348. My son is getting married this week. He and his new wife want a Blentec more than anything! I would present it to them for a wedding present. Then I will buy one for me!! And make a Hot Fudge milkshake.

  349. Well seeing as this milkshake recipe has me drooling, I think that would be first thing I’d blend up! ๐Ÿ˜€

  350. Without question, the first thing I’d blend up would be a milkshake! I have been craving a mint chocolate chip milkshake for quite some time now, and my blender has trouble with even just milkshakes!

  351. My blender is 25 years old, and barely works. If I got this blender, I would make something with ice that needs to be blended thoroughly. Then, I think I would make pesto. Probably some milkshakes. A smoothie or two…

  352. Well, I definitely want to make the milkshake! But, I’m also trying to trim up a bit. So, it would be perfect for my morning protein shake. So, I can stay on track with my diet and also enjoy the awesome treats you post. ๐Ÿ™‚

  353. Now that we MAY be seeing a bit of summer weather, I’m looking forward to gazpacho with all of those beautiful tomatoes!!

  354. My daughter has been bugging me to make a milkshake for her lately…not sure I could hold her off long enough but that’d be what I would make ๐Ÿ˜€ Her flavor of choice!

  355. The first thing I would make in my new blendtec is a nice summer smoothie and then later on, a nice milkshake.

  356. My husband would be so happy (and I would be too) to make a cookie milk shake if I won. That sounds delicious!

  357. I have been wanting a blendtec for soooooooo long!!! WOW! My 6 year old son also loved the videos! HA! I would say the first thing I would make would be peanut butter…….BUT it may have to be the chocolate chip cookie milkshake!

  358. Haha! I love that they blend up the Biebs!

    The first thing I would blend would be Chick Peas, for some delicious homemade Hummus!

  359. I would definitely make a strawberry milkshake ๐Ÿ™‚ potentially with some chocolate chips added – everything’s better with a little chocolate!

  360. I would make fruit smooothies for my husband, he has been away overseas for a year now, and is coming home soon, so I would make him his favorite smoothies first, then I would defiantely have to make and our daughters the chocolate chip cookie milkshake you posted, looks yummy!!!!!

  361. I would start off with making my mom her favorite…MALTS! Then I would appease my nieces and sisters by making their very own custom ordered fruit smoothies! I have a special vanilla powder that takes the smoothie to another level of yummy-ness!
    Then I would try my hand making dressings. I’m rather sick of the calorie dressings on the store shelves!
    That’s what I would do the first day I get it if I win;)

  362. If I won, I would make berry smoothies first and then a banana milk shake. Yum. I can already taste them.

  363. This looks amazing! I would make a mint chocolate chip shake or strawberry shake! Strawberries are amazing right now!

  364. I would make a malted date shake, using date crystals from Medjool dates grown locally….mmm,mmm good!

  365. My husband makes smoothies everyday, so that would probably be our first use. However, I’d vote for blended margaritas! Thanks for the giveaway!

  366. The first thing I would make with a Blendtec blender is definitely this chocolate chip cookie milkshake. It looks so refreshing and delicious. The blender we have now barely works. It sucks because summer is the perfect time to enjoy a cold, blended drink!

  367. First- homemade salsa. Second- chocolate malts. Our first blender died after about a year, and we have yet to replace it. C’mon, Blendtec!

  368. Hmmmm….I’ve heard that you can grind wheat in these babies, so I would give it a try! Then make a protein shake for hubby…

  369. What a fabulous giveaway! If I won, I would probably make that delish shake you shared in the Blendtec!! Great idea!

  370. If I won the Blendtec, I’d make some strawberry-watermelon margaritas! Thanks for the opportunity!

  371. I would definitely make a milkshake! It’s the perfect way to kick off the official start of summer!

  372. My blender just got a major crack while blending ice for smoothies….I’ve been craving them more now that I can’t make them! So hands down, I would be whipping up some crazy good drinks!

  373. I follow Blendtec on Twitter and would love to get a blender that’s able to blend my ipod! ๐Ÿ˜‰ haha!

  374. I would make a badita de lechosa:

    1/4 Maridol Papaya(the large kind, not Hawaiian)
    2 cups ice
    1/3 cup brown sugar
    1/2 can Condensed Milk
    1/2 tsp vanilla

  375. “Liked” your webpage. Another good find that I didn’t know was there! Thanks for the motivation to find it! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  376. I am a big fan of smoothies–some grapefruit segments in juice, frozen strawberries, blend. Perfection.

  377. I would use the blender to make a milkshake. It’s been so long and suddenly I have a deep craving for a milkshak. I wonder why? ๐Ÿ™‚

  378. It would definitely have to be a fruit smoothie for my husband. In the past few months he broke one blender and partially broke another. It would be great to have an awesome blender that he doesn’t have to stick my spatulas in to mix:)

  379. i would make a salsa with the tomatoes out of my garden that are green right now but will be red in a week or so! ๐Ÿ™‚ yummmmm – didn’t know you had a facebook! excited to keep up with you that way!

  380. Smoothies, for sure!!! Our blender smells like something is melting every time I use it now. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  381. While this milkshake sounds amazing RIGHT THIS SECOND, the first thing I would make is a smoothie. As boring as it sounds, I’m a working college student with a tight budget, summer has just begun, and I don’t even own a blender! I haven’t had an actually delicious smoothie since I moved away from home (because let’s face it, although Jamba Juice is fun, I always feel a sugar induced coma coming on after one of those bad boys!)

  382. The first thing i will make in my new blender is Serendipity Frozen Hot Chocolate…yum! Thanks for the opportunity!

  383. I would make this milkshake recipe and then move on to make oreo truffles. As, I don’t actually own a blender currently, winning one would be awesome.. ๐Ÿ™‚

  384. I would definitely make a smoothie! Depending on what fruit I had on had, I’d put a few different fruits, yogurt, milk, and a few ice cubes. Summer weather makes me crave smoothies!

  385. I would make this milkshake and then a healthy smoothie the next day to make up for yesterday’s damage. LOL! That shake is calling my name, especially since I’ve been on a diet for way too long.

  386. I would probably make my favorite protein shake!! 1 cup milk, 1 scoop chocolate protein powder or high protein slim fast, tsp chocolate pudding powder, tbsp peanut butter and crushed ice!!! YUM! Would be soooo smooth if it were blended in a blendtec!

  387. I think I would be making myself a homemade orange julius, followed quickly by my husband making mint cholcolate chip shakes! Both so yummy!!

  388. I would make an Oreo milkshake or a green smoothie. I’ve been so jealous of my sister’s Blendtec.

  389. three berry, spinach and carrot smoothie – most blenders can’t handle the carrots and all the ice I add

  390. Are you kidding??? 3 days of school left with 20 kindergarteners- the first would be a lovely icy adult beverage!

  391. I love your blog and recipes Maria! Since the second blender we have bought in two months just broke I would LOVE a blendtec. The first thing I would make would be blender wheat pancakes. YUM!

  392. I would make a fabulous smoothie. I love smoothies in the summertime, but my blender doesn’t make them very smooth…they are more chunkies. I like to be able to sip them with a straw, but instead I end up having to crunch them.

  393. I would make my husband his favorite fruit smoothies first, since he has been over seas for a year now, but he will be home this summer, and I know he would love to have some of his favorite fruit smoothies again. I would also make this chocolate chip cookie milkshake for me and my daughters, it looks so good!!!!!! This bender would come in great use, as my blender just actually broke!!!!

  394. I would make a fruit smoothy with chard or spinach for my mother. She’s 84 years old suffering with pain from shingles, lost her appetite and is down to 80 lbs. When I went home I took my blendtec, made her smoothies and she said it made her hungrier so the extra nutrition perked up her appetite.

  395. The first thing I would make is homemade ice cream! You gotta blend everything up before putting it in the ice cream freezer. Mmmmm…..homemade strawberry ice cream!

  396. I’m taking a break from studying for my med school anatomy class… and I think a green smoothie to power me up would be GREAT right about now…

  397. Fantastic! I would make a green smoothie–I make one every single morning in my very sad, very old blender. It takes a long time and involves lots of poking it with a spoon to get everything blended–I’m sure the Blendtec could make an amazing smoothie in a quarter of the time!

  398. I would love love love to win this blender. I’ve been without one for almost a year since it broke. I think my little one would love smoothies this summer. I’ve made a few using my food processor (surprisingly they weren’t too bad) but know they will be so much better using a blender. ๐Ÿ™‚

  399. Oh my goodness this would be amazing! I just had my gallbladder removed and so I’ve got a really strict diet right now. This would make meals so much easier! I’d make a fruit smoothie first thing!

  400. The first thing I’d want to make with the Blendtec Blender would have to be a delicious fruit smoothie! With the heat of the summertime, nothing is better than a cold, sweet smoothie!

  401. It would probably be a smoothie since I have so much fresh fruit in my fridge, but I would LOVE to try the chocolate chip shake!!! Pick me!!

  402. I am now following BlendTec, I have never heard of it … but I’m interested to see how it compares to the Vitamix, so I will keep my eye on BlendTec now for when I’m ready to make my high dollar blender purchase ๐Ÿ™‚

  403. I would use the Blendtec to make smoothies and mixed drinks. Though I did have a Salty Frog snocone for the first time yesterday (snocone ice, lime juice, and salt) that was really refreshing … I wonder if the BlendTec would be able to make snocone consistency ice!

  404. I’d be making milkshakes and smoothies to help us get through the HOT summer we are having. Love it!!!

  405. I would make a tomato soup in my blender if I were lucky enough to win it! Great giveaway!!

  406. I would make….what wouldn’t I make! Probably a Green Smoothie followed by fruit smoothies, ice cream and snow cones (for my 2 1/2yr old twin boys and 4 1/2yr old boy).

    I also signed up for email updates and “Like” Blendtec and Two Peas & Their Pod on FB!!!!!

  407. It’s a toss-up between red-pepper hummus and a giant green smoothie — kale, spinach, flax seed, bananas, strawberries — the works!

  408. It would be a toss up to make my daughter her favorite school bus smoothie (strawberry banana), an orange dream shake or a nice batch of homemade margaritas! (would go great with that pineapple salsa you posted)!

  409. P.S. I’m already following “TwoPeas” on twitter — that’s how I found out about the giveaway! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  410. I make tons of smoothies. My blender sometimes isn’t up to the task of frozen whole berries. That is what I would make first. Blendtec are great blenders. Jealous.

  411. The first thing I would make in a new Blendtec blender would either be a smoothie or a batch of hummus. It would depend on what time of day the blender arrived!

  412. I would make a green smoothie. My husband has been wanting to make those are daily breakfast for a while, but he doesn’t like the chunks. I know this blender would do the trick.

  413. Oh boy! I think the first thing I would make with my blendtec would be either a smoothie or blender wheat pancakes! Both are FAVORITES!!!

  414. a Smoothie! Our blender smells like it’s burning up when I try to throw berries and yogurt in it. A Blendtec would be great!

  415. SMOOTHIES. We all LOVE them for breakfast in my house. I’ve killed 2 blenders already for this habit!

  416. I would absolutely make your chocolate chip cookie milkshake recipe. Could anything be as wonderful?! Chocolate chip cookies mixed with vanilla ice cream, extra chocolate chips and whip cream? Honestly, sounds out of this world!

  417. The first thing I would make is smoothies for the kids, and then watermelon margaritas for mommy & daddy!

    P.S. The chocolate chip cookie milkshake looks delish! ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Thanks for the giveaway~

  418. When I was preggo…all I wanted was a smoothie too! During the winter! ๐Ÿ™‚ This would be great to have.

  419. I love milkshakes! If I would happen to win, I think I would make a chocolate cherry milkshake.

  420. I would experiment with everything I could, but the first thing I would make is a big green smoothie for my father who is recuperating from cancer. I’ve been doing a lot of reading on green smoothie recipes.

  421. I would start out by making this delicious looking chocolate chip cookie milkshake, then make some super thick smoothies!

  422. The only cure for a hot day — a smoothie! Strawberry, banana, mango, and guava juice — my favorite ๐Ÿ™‚

  423. I will be making smoothies for breakfast! And hopefully grinding wheat to make bread! I really really want one!!

  424. YUMMY!!!!! A few day ago my partner made me an oreo milkshake and as soon as i saw this i was demanding him to make it for me ๐Ÿ˜› . Thanks for all the wonderful recipes and idea’s , keep them coming ๐Ÿ˜€

  425. I would make a million things I’ve been wanting to make! We never got one when we got married over a year ago and I would love one!

  426. Oh I would blend up something really super healthy for my tube feeder. Blend Tec is one of the very few blenders that is recommended to have the power to blend food for g tube feeders. I want/NEED this!

  427. First thing I would make in a Blendtec? Roasted tomatillo salsa! (Truthfully, it’s the first thing I’d ask my husband to make…I’d probably use it to make a smoothie or a fruit puree to have on hand.)

  428. Sam (1 yr) is very picky with what he will eat, but he will drink ANYTHING. The first thing I will make for him will be a green smoothie with bananas (cause he does love bananas). Start getting him some more veggies!!

  429. I have wanted one of these blenders for…ever! What would I make? Well this milkshake looks quite delish..but I’ve also wanted to re-make a smoothie from this place that uses one of these high speed blenders. It’s the smoothest, creamiest smoothie I’ve ever had and I’d love the ability to recreate it!

  430. Hmm…If I was in a healthy sort of mood I would say a smoothie with Greek yogurt, berries, bananas and a splash of fruit juice. But, today I’m in an especially powerful chocolate craving sort of mood, so I’m going to say a shake with Haagen Dazs coffee ice cream, dark chocolate syrup and maybe a few Oreos sprinkled in as well. Wow, I’m drooling just thinking about it. Love your blog! Thank you for he great giveaway!

  431. Oooh, tough decision! I think the first thing I try would end up being a fruit smoothie, because I LOVE them! But this milkshake…dangerous…would probably be a close second!

  432. My first recipe would be a big batch of frozen margaritas for all the friends I’d have over to celebrate! Our blender has just died so an awesome new blender would be a great reason to celebrate.

  433. I would probably make a smoothie. We make tons of those around here and my blender broke less than a year ago and it was so sad.

  434. I think the first thing I would make would be the Chocolate Chip milkshake-looks so good!!! I would also make smoothies too. I’m pregnant so all of this is sounding so good to me right now….I want a milkshake (might have to go get one!!)

  435. I would love a blender with that much power so it could also be used like a food processor since I don’t have one of thoses. I would use it most often for smoothies but I would also utilize it for stuff like pesto sauce?!

  436. I would be hard pressed not to try to think of something to try to blend a la the Will It Blend Series. But then when I come to my senses, I’d probably make some hummus. Mmmmm.

  437. First thing I would blend in a Blendtec would be my old work laptop. I’d love to give that back to my boss as dust ๐Ÿ˜›

  438. What is the first thing I would make in your Blendtec blender?
    I would make an entire meal, starting with a summery cocktail, followed by: a raspberry vinaigrette to go with a green salad, next summery cold tomato soup, with a side of hummus and home baked pitas. Dessert would be a fruited sorbet.

  439. The first thing I would blend is a nutrition shake with strawberries, banana, greek yogurt, and lots of ice! This Blendtec would offer a much needed upgrade to my kitchen, and would receive daily use. Thanks for offering this contest!

  440. Umm, this milkshake of course! But if I don’t have any cookies on hand, it might be a smoothie or some pina colada ๐Ÿ™‚

  441. I would first thing make a smoothie for my kids. My daughter is a picky dinner eater and smoothies are our saving grace sometimes!

  442. My wife and I have been wanting to start a food cart here in Portland. Soups would be our speciality. The first thing we would make would be Carrot Ginger soup. The second thing we would make would be Roasted Tomato and fresh Basil soup. The third and fourth things are interchangeable: Lobster Bisque and Gumbo. Then, the last thing we would use our Blendtec for would be to make Vanilla Ice Cream, plain and simple. A great blender is a huge investment for us, and it would go a long way to help making our dreams come true! We love the blog. Thanks so much for all the awesome recipes. Keep up the good work!

  443. I’d make yummy green smoothies to sneak some veggies into my girls. Then I’d make yummy fruit popsicles to replace the sugar laden ones at the grocery store.

  444. I’ll have to resist the urge to blend something unsafe, but I would blend… a smoothie! It’s hot with no AC in New York!

  445. A smoothie. I smashed my blender to bits a week ago, and have been missing the smoothies! PB, banana and milk. Yum!

  446. Since I just found out that I will probably be losing my job this summer, it’s frozen margaritas for the win! ๐Ÿ™‚

  447. oooh i would make this, or i would make the toasted marshmallow shake i’ve seen on a few blogs!

  448. I’d love to blend a milkshake. I would then also like to blend some veggies to “sneak” into our meals so the kids don’t complain!!! LOL

  449. I would make my triple berry almond smoothie….that is what I would blend first….or maybe a tropical protein smoothie…..mmmmmwant a smoothie right now……

  450. I would definitely make a green smoothie, with leafy greens and fruit. I have heard such great things about how the blendtec can make such smooth drinks, I can’t wait to use it one day! Your milkshake looks absolutely delicious!

  451. I’ve been on a big green monster kick lately so I’d make the perfect green monster smoothie or some banana frozen yogurt!

  452. My sister has a Blendtec and has been grinding wheat in it to make homemade bread, so I would love to try it out if I win.

  453. That looks delicious!

    I would make a mango strawberry smoothie since they’re in season right now and absolutely delicious!

  454. Maybe 1000 other people have already said this, but I’m totally a smoothie girl. I would make my favorite mango pineapple smoothie!

  455. Being pregnant with our first baby is exciting…but finding something that settles the stomach is hard. Would love to win so I can make frozen drinks and settle this tummy:)

  456. I would make a smoothie with strawberries, lemonade and peaches yummmmmm. My blender broke when I called the company they told me it cant blend frozen fruit? ๐Ÿ™ I need a blendtec!

  457. The first thing I would have to make would be my homemade version of a BR Chocolate Blast: chocolate ice cream, milk, chocolate syrup and ice. It’s so rich, but SO good! ๐Ÿ™‚ My current blender (received as a wedding gift 7 years ago) leaves chunks of ice even after the mad shaking you described.

  458. The first thing I would do is make that chocolate chip cookie milkshake! It combines my two favorite things, cookies and ice cream!

  459. I have yet to find a good blender…would love to try this one! The first thing I would make would be a fresh Mango Lassi!!! YUMMM!

  460. It’s a bit boring, but I would definitely make smoothies first. My kids live for chocolate banana peanut butter smoothies!

  461. The first thing I would make with the Blendtec Blender be a extra thick choc. milk shake with toffee bits or maybe a Frozen hot chocolate… It’s so hard to decide! Anything that replaces my blender that cannot crush ice.

  462. I would make a coconut banana milkshake…some a small bit of flake coconut, whole milk, and frozen pieces of banana…I always have them in the fridge for when I crave a banana milkshake. I put them there when bananas get a little old and bruised and no on wants to eat them – they make an excellent shake!

    Best made thick and eaten with a spoon.

  463. I have been wanting a blender for a long time, but don’t want to waste my precious money on something that won’t work, or will break soon enough. I would be soooooooo excited if I won this!! The first thing I would make would be. . .a power smoothie. Some berries (probably raspberrries and blueberries), and spinich! Mmm I love smoothies. .. I would love to be able to have them whenever I wanted!

  464. I NEED a new blender! The first thing I would make would be these milkshakes. Love chocolate chip cookies, and love milkshakes, so these would be perfect!

  465. I had never thought about making a chocolate chip cookie milkshake; it sounds so yummy! I think the first thing I will blend up is an OJ milkshake, just orange juice and vanilla ice cream, but it is sooooo yummy! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!
    Katie

  466. I would bled peace, love and happiness and share it with the world. Ok, ok I would blend up some PB Chocolate soy pudding. YUM!

  467. I would make a fruit and vegie smoothie! I once saw someone blend a RAW CARROT with a vegematic and couldn’t believe it. Can Blendtec do that??

  468. I’d make green smoothies–everyday! I really, really want a BlendTec. I’m getting tired of chewing the spinach and kale in my drinks!

  469. Wow, I’ve wanted a Blendtec for a while! I would make milkshakes…probably cookies and cream…yum!

  470. I would make a margarita. I prefer them on the rocks, but mainly because I’ve yet to meet a blender that makes a frozen one the way I like.

  471. First thing I would make…for me: a pesto, for my husband a tropical fruit smoothie.

  472. Oh, so many things will be made in a Blendtec, but I will definitely try to make my own honey peanut butter, dh’s favorite.

  473. I’d make smoothies for my girls. They are just nuts about those.
    Follow you on facebook & twitter and just liked Blentec on facebook and twitter too.
    Love your blog, it’s my favorite!

  474. The first thing that I would make in my new blender would be this milkshake! It looks sooo yummy!

  475. I feel like I’m spamming leaving this many comments, lol! But here’s the first one: I follow Blendtec on Twitter.

  476. Smoothies!!!! I’m in serious need of a blender – mine died ๐Ÿ™ Thanks for the chance to win.

  477. I would definitely try out this Chocolate Chip Cookie Milkshake recipe! I like Blendtec and Two Peas on facebook and I follow both on Twitter (Flour_de_Liz)

  478. Defintely a summer smoothie! I have tons of wonderful fresh fruit in my house right now, but i’m like you, i hate having to shake the blender to get it to blend and then never being able to get all the ice chucks out!

  479. It’s summer so something cold and delicious, smoothie, milkshake or coffee frappicino…yummmm

  480. PS, the first thing I would make is frozen hot chocolate. Then I would be healthier and switch to green smoothies!
    BUt im sure my kids will find a way to blend my iphone

  481. My blender is currently broken, so a new one would be great!!! I love smoothies too, so that’s what I would make.

  482. Yeah! It’s my birthday! I’m officially old enough to get the old folks discounts at most restaurants. Woohoo! This would be a great gadget for blending all the foods I can’t chew any more.. cuz I’m so old.

  483. I would have a tough time choosing between this recipe for your milkshake or a smoothie! I have been on a smoothie kick this summer – yum! It would be great to have a blender that actually worked!

  484. I would make a fruit smoothie out of all the frozen fruit in my freezer. I put it in there when it starts to get a little soft, or brown in the case of bananas. Unfortunately, I don’t have a blender right now, so the fruit has been piling up.

  485. I love making large batches of fresh salsa. With summer in full swing fresh salsa is one of my favorite snacks. I would use this amazing blender to blend up tomatoes, onion, peppers, cilantro, salt, pepper, and a little sugar to get a delicious batch of salsa! Yummy!! I’m hungry just thinking about it!!

  486. The first thing I would do with a blendtec–make smoothies!!! To have a blender I don’t have to shake? That.Would.Be.Awesome!

  487. I subscribed to the email updates (even though you’re already in a top position on my igoogle reader!) I <3 your blog!

  488. I love shakes! I would make a thick grasshopper shake. Mint oreos, vanilla ice cream and mint flavoring.

  489. I need a blender so bad. I think this milkshake looks so yummy, but the first thing I would make is a smoothie. Mostly because I’m trying to avoid sweets. Thank you for sharing all your recipes. I made your chocolate chip cookie bars on Saturday. So good. We might make them again for FHE treat…which I may or may not eat…like I said I’m trying to avoid sweets. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  490. Okay, I definitely want one after seeing your strawberry ice cream post! So expensive though – to win one would be amazing.

  491. Well, of course it would be a margarita!!! Probably peach, with fresh peaches from our farmers market! Is there anything else you use your blender for?

  492. We have a farm and LOTS of fruit and vegetables. We adore fruit purees and compotes, cold and hot soups, and smoothies. And ice cream! I can think of dozens of combinations that would taste heavenly, and i can visualise a freezer filled with frozen Blendtec concoctions that would remind us of summer during our l-o-n-g Maine winter. I have my fingers crossed xxx.

  493. The first thing I’d make would be that chocolate chip cookie milkshake…YUM! Then I’d go back to making “healthier” smoothies!

  494. I would make a batch of homemade ketchup!!!! I am pregnant and that’s what I’m craving – well, that and maybe some pecan pie ๐Ÿ™‚

  495. I would make my very favorite frozen coffee drink…..a frappuccino! I have a low calorie recipe I use and it’s amazing.

  496. I would make a Chocolate Banana Milkshake.

    My dad used to make these for me all the time when I was little and I love them. I can’t wait to make them for my boys (2 years and 3 months). I may spruce up the recipe with honey sauteed bananas though.

  497. I would make a yummy smoothie w/ banana, coconut milk, cacao powder and some pepitas w/ ice with my new Blendtec!

  498. I’ve been trying to subscribe to the email, but I haven’t received the confirmation email. Hopefully I’m okay, though! I still want to receive your emails, though!!! ๐Ÿ™‚

  499. I would have to say that I would try the cookie shake. But, I would use the vanilla pudding chocolate chips (I LOVE that recipe) but I also use chocolate pudding instead of vanilla pudding.

  500. Oh my goodness. I would make a cookies and cream milkshake!! Similar to this – just with oreos ๐Ÿ™‚

  501. YUM… I want this milkshake now! The first thing I would probably make in this awesome blender would be a chocolate or strawberry milkshake- I’ve been craving one so bad!

  502. I would make a delicious protein shake with strawberries, a banana, vanilla frozen yogurt, and vanilla protein powder for a filling breakfast! Yummy!

  503. i would probably start with a fruit smoothie and then try buttermilk pancakes made from whole grains

  504. What a great giveaway! The first thing I’d make is homemade juice. I’d blend up some organic veggies and fruits in the Blendtec (the red one would match my kitchen!) and then squeeze it all through a nut-milk bag. Or maybe I’ll just make one of these cookie shakes! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  505. The first thing I would make is a bearnaise sauce to go with my grilled steaks this summer. I have a recipe from Vincent Price (yes, that Vincent Price the actor) that uses a blender to make hollandaise sauce and then the bearnaise sauce. It is absolutely foolproof and the best sauces I have ever tasted. The second thing I would make is a Mudslide drink! Gotta be able to sip a icy cool drink while eating that steak and bearnaise sauce by the pool!
    I love your recipes and have used quite a few of them. I am a baking fiend and am always trying out new recipes. My co-workers at my school love it when I bring them cookies! =) I do have to make this cookie milkshake for sure!

  506. A Strawberry Greek Yogurt Smoothie for Jack immediately followed by a Mocha Frappucino for Mom.

  507. We would make cleanses for our clients faster and easier! Raw, Vegan superfood rich foods are made in our blenders.. smoothies, juices, raw ice creams and soups! …but we can’t afford a new one at the moment! Our current blenders are GHET-TO! They leak and don’t work very well ๐Ÿ™ but we make it work and will continue making it work until we can purchase new ones! ๐Ÿ™‚ As we continue healing one body at a time we will slowly work our way to new amazing blenders… hopefully a blendtec! ๐Ÿ™‚

  508. The first thing I would make is a chocolate shake. I’ve recently started buying them at Dairy Queen and can’t avoid at least once a week. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  509. I have Subscribed to Two Peas and Their Podโ€™s email updates, and am looking forward to each of them.

  510. Oh to envision the BlendTec blender (in white) standing at attention on my kitchen counter, awaiting my raw creations. The first thing I would make is a Green Smoothie. Kale is one of my favs and a little too much work for my current mixer. But that’s just the beginning. Summer is here and so is the amazing amount of fresh fruit. I’d most likely turn into a crazed smoothie maker in the first week! Is it too much to hope for a winning ticket?
    Keep up the good job with your Blogs~
    Regards,
    Raw GF ๐Ÿ™‚

  511. Hmm, what to make first?? I’d probably make tomato basil soup since my tiny bullet blender really hasn’t lived up to the task before. I’d love to see it all smooth and creamy. Although, I recently looked through the Blendtec recipe book and I’d probably be making stuff for a month – soups, smoothies, ice cream, whole fruit juices…

  512. The first thing I would make would be this very recipe, of course! What better way to give thanks? ๐Ÿ˜‰

  513. I would blend this Green Drink smoothie that my mother-in-law makes. So yummy and so healthy!

  514. I would make almond or peanut butter – I’ve been meaning to try it but have been nervous about making it in my regular blender.

  515. Smoothies, for sure. Our little stick blender died and we haven’t replaced it yet! Overkill, I know, but that’s still what I would do.

  516. I am a subscriber, “liker”,everyday reader, tweeter etc… But that’s beside the point.
    I need the whole blendtec package because it’s surely the quickest and most efficient way to feed my growing family. Although you don’t have any big peas in the teenage pod yet, you’ll soon find out how rapidly food can disappear, so the blendtec will help me out immensely!

  517. I “liked” blentec on facebook

    I am an email subscriber

    I “liked” two peas and a pod on facebook!

  518. I would make ice cream with it, because you CAN!

    I followed Blendtec on twitter
    I followed you on twitter
    I liked blendtec on facebook

  519. I would make my Asian Green Ribs recipe. Neither my current blender or my FP does a great job with all those herbs (particularly the lemongrass).

  520. I would either make a smoothie or… maybe try the choc chip cookie milkshake ๐Ÿ˜‰ Thanks so much for the offer and all of the FABULOUS inspiration! And good luck in the rest of your pregnancy!

  521. My husband LOVES the “will it blend” series! We love smoothies all year but especially in the summer.

  522. The first thing I would make would be a vegan “cheesecake” made with cashews- I don’t have anything that will blend the cashews fine enough to make a good dessert! ๐Ÿ™‚

  523. I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this blender. I would make a GREAT smoothy.

    I also liked you and blendtec on Facebook and am a subscriber.

  524. My fiance follows this blog, and just linked me to those delicious looking blueberry lemon bars, and I noticed this giveaway.

    If we won the blender, we might have to fight over what we make first (I don’t know what he said, so I’m guessing he didn’t say this), but smoothies. I have a bunch of things that need to be made into smoothies, and no more blender to do it.

    After that, soup.

  525. I would make milkshakes for my kids! They love them….I’ll have to try yours.
    Love all your posts!:)

  526. A super thick chocolate shake maybe even made with half and half and real hershey’s syrup. Brings back a childhood memory.

  527. I would make a cookie shake first,because it sounds so yummy and then I would like to make green smoothies.

  528. Oh my gosh! So many choices of things I could make. Well I am obsessed with smoothies, especially during the summer, so that would probably be one of the first things I would make. I have been want to make a large batch of my chicken enchiladas with a spicy tomatillo sauce, which needs a blendar to be made.

  529. Oh my gosh! That looks delicious! It was so fun meeting you last night at the blog conference and you were wrong your pictures are amazing! Way to go!! Btw, I am following you now on FB.

  530. I am also following Blendtec on FB…man oh man would I love to win this. I hear they are great blenders!

  531. I’d like to say that the first thing I would make would be a healthy fruit smoothie. But, in all honesty, it would probably be a coffee frappe ๐Ÿ˜‰ I LOVE coffee and need a good blender to properly frappe!

  532. I want to be more healthy, so I am going to make some green drinks. My kids want ice cream. We’ll do both!
    Thanks, Jackie

  533. I would just blend a big ole smoothie. I live for smoothies in the summer and would love this blender.

  534. Hmmm…..I think I would have to make an oreo malt! Love those! Oh, or a strawberry banana smoothie! Yum yum!

  535. I don’t think I could nail down one thing I would thing I would make. I love that you can make your own flour and since my kid is gluten free I would make rice flour. Since rice four is so expensive and doesn’t last long it would be nice to have it fresh and on demand for once. I would also make soup, I would make milk shakes and baby food. I could see this really making my life a lot easier!!

  536. I SO need this for so many reasons. I’m most excited to make green shakes and smoothies using the produce from my local CSA. First thing I would make is a Kale and Strawberry Shake! ๐Ÿ™‚

  537. This milkshake looks sooo good. If I had a Blendtec, I would inevitably use it to make some sort of soup. I bet it would make a wonderfully smooth cream of cauliflower or butternut squash & apple!

  538. I would first make a smoothie out of all the beautiful fruit we have been picking lately. Then some shakes, soups, the possiblilities are endless.

  539. I might just have to make this milkshake! Or my famous kale smoothie that my whole family loves!

    I subscribed via e-mail and liked you on facebook too!

  540. Gosh!! 2578 entries!! WOW!! Ok so If I WIN the Blendtec, I would love to make PESTO!! My all time favorite condiment ๐Ÿ™‚

  541. oooooh pick me! pick me! I will make gf/cf/sf “ice cream”! then soup, then salsa…oh, I can only begin to tell you the joy!

  542. I would love to win this blender. Our wedding gift blender died unexpectedly 7 mo. After getting it, so the first thing I would make is a green chunky monkey smoothie!

  543. I use my Blendtec for grinding breadcrumbs, or pulverizing oatmeal into oatflour or tomatoes into tomato sauce/juice. Since mine is over 10 years old… I LOVE my Blendtec… and would LOVE a new one that will last me another 10 years!!

  544. I would make some baby food for my little 6 month princess! Maria, check out wholesomebabyfood.com for when your little gets here!

  545. I would make up a big batch of baby food! Maybe a baby smoothie of organic vanilla yogurt, blueberries and bananas. Yum!

  546. I followed you on twitter @lovelylady_E and would LOVE to win the blendtec.

    One of the first things I will use the blendtec for will be a green smoothie.

  547. I ‘liked’ Blendtec on Facebook. Really hoping to win this Blendtec. I will use it to make raw vegan cheese!!

  548. Just recently found your blog, and I am really enjoying everything about it. I have now subscribed to your blog.

  549. I want a blendtec… I subscribe and “like” you on facebook. I would make smoothies tomorrow morning and then grind wheat for pancakes, plus make homemade syrup and that’s just for breakfast…then I’d make salsa for lunch or hummus, to compliment my soup that I’ve just whipped in my blendtec. For dinner, I’d try the brown rice burger recipe, easy to make with the blendtec. With YOUR blog recipes and the blendtec, there are endless possibilities!

  550. A Berry Smoothie! I would throw in a bunch of frozen berries as this looks like a blender that can handle those frozen babies without making loud groaning sounds!

  551. The first thing I’d make would be ice cream. I’ve never made my own ice cream, but reading your blog really makes me want to try it!

  552. I like Two Peas and Their Pod on Facebook.

    (Iโ€™m Annulla Sweeps on Facebook)

    annulla (at) gmail (dot) com

  553. I would make a spinach pesto pasta.
    Afterwards i would end the night with a frozen coffee blend.
    =) pick me!

  554. Well, if it blends cell phones, the first thing I’d do is grind some whole wheat grain in it. I really wanted a vitamix but maybe Blend tec is better! Then onto smoothies, homemade mayo, ketchup etc.

  555. I would probably make a smoothie first. Followed by some ice cream ๐Ÿ™‚ awesome giveaway!

  556. I used the mini Chips Ahoy choc chip cookies for this and it turned out amazingly. Probably my all-time favorite milkshake ๐Ÿ™‚ Thank you all for sharing!

  557. Oh my gosh what wouldn’t I make? I’d start off by just putting ice in there and watching in awe at the power of this machine. Oh my goodness, I would be ecstatic.

  558. I’d make a chocolate malted. Or a lime agua fresca. Depends on how hot it is that day!

    I liked you on FB.

  559. Fruit smoothies for my boys. My Son has been showing me videos and telling me how awesome a Blendtec is for a few months.

  560. 1st thing I would make would be an awesome strawberry margarita….or more likely, a smoothie of some sort for my wife. Wifey happy, me happy. = )

  561. Nice Blogging!! Nice topic that your have discussed in this blog. What a shake. Looking so beautiful. Really i want to eat it.

  562. 5 stars
    This recipes is the first thing I would make in the Blendtec blender! I just had teeth extracted, so no solid food, but I’m craving chocolate chip cookies! This recipe makes it possible for me to have my cookies and eat them too ๐Ÿ˜‰ thank you for sharing this!!
