Why Our Shakes Stand Out from the Competition
There’s something magical about the perfect shake—it’s nostalgic, satisfying, and capable of turning an ordinary day into something a little sweeter. But in a world full of dessert shops and frozen drink chains, what really makes one shake better than the rest?
At Cookie Dough Monster, we’ve made it our mission to create shakes that stand out from the competition, and the reasons why are layered in every swirl of Hershey’s Old Fashioned ice cream, every hand-picked topping, and every smile we serve alongside it.
Let’s break down what makes our shakes different—and why so many locals and visitors alike keep coming back for more.
It Starts with Premium Ingredients
At the heart of every unforgettable shake is the ice cream. While some places cut corners with low-grade dairy or artificial flavors, we believe in sticking with the good stuff. That’s why all of our shakes begin with Hershey’s Old Fashioned ice cream, known for its creamy texture, rich flavor, and quality you can taste from the first sip.
Whether you’re going for a classic Vanilla, Strawberry, or Chocolate, or getting wild with a Reese Cup or Cookies & Cream blend, the base is always built on real-deal ice cream that tastes like childhood in a cup.

Unique Flavor Combinations You Won’t Find Anywhere Else
One thing that makes our shakes stand out from the competition is the creativity we pour into every recipe. We don’t just stick with the basics—we remix them into something brand new.
Take our Fluffernutter Shake, for example. It’s not just peanut butter and vanilla. It’s a blend of peanut butter, marshmallow cream, and Hershey’s ice cream that delivers a flavor bomb of sweet and salty goodness.
Then there’s the Strawberry Banana, made with strawberry ice cream and real banana—not syrup. And if you want pure indulgence, the Reese Cup Shake combines peanut butter with chunks of Reese’s candy for that crave-worthy combo no one can resist.
Every shake is a result of flavor engineering, and it’s why fans keep coming back to try every one on the list.
Real Ingredients. No Shortcuts.
If you’ve ever had a shake that tasted like chemicals or was overly sugary, chances are it was loaded with artificial flavors and cheap mix-ins. We skip all of that. The only way to deliver shakes that stand out from the competition is to use real, high-quality ingredients in every cup.
We use:
- Real strawberries and fresh banana
- Authentic Oreos, not off-brand substitutes
- Rich peanut butter
- Creamy marshmallow fluff
- Chunks of real Reese's Cups
Our mission is simple: when you order a shake, you deserve the real thing. And that’s what you get at Cookie Dough Monster.
Consistency That Never Misses
Ever ordered a shake that was too runny? Or worse, so thick it clogged your straw? The perfect shake should be drinkable but still spoonable, satisfying without being too rich. And that balance? We’ve nailed it.
Our team knows that blending technique matters. It’s not just about throwing everything in a mixer. We make sure the consistency is just right, every time. That’s why when you order one of our shakes—whether it’s your first or your fiftieth—it tastes exactly how you remember it.
