This recipe was featured in an email this morning from Hungry Girl. The results are DELICIOUS!!!! BTW, I say it's never too cold out to slurp down this shake. Just do it while in the comfort of your toasty-warm home. Happy sipping! FROM THE READER: Dear Hungry Girl, I keep hearing about that Mint Oreo Ice Cream Shake at Carl's Jr., and I can't stop thinking about it. Do you have a swap for me, HG? Shake Me Up HG'S REPLY: Yes! Of course there's an HG swap for this one. That crazy shake actually has 800 calories and 37g fat (POINTS. value 19*). And although I'm not always a fan of the chocolate-mint combo, I get why people are obsessed with this shake. Based on one of our popular recipes - the Cookie-rific Ice Cream Freeze - we made a minted-up version that tastes A LOT like the one Carl's Jr. sells. Only ours doesn't carry the insane nutritional price tag! Here's how to make it...
