Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different flavor of ice cream instead of French vanilla?
Yes, you can substitute with other flavors like cookies and cream or chocolate, but it may alter the overall taste of the shake.
What type of cookies should I use for the shake?
For the best results, use classic chocolate sandwich cookies, as they blend well with the French vanilla ice cream.
