Santa’s Cookies and Milk Shake (available at The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen): An iconic holiday treat comes to life as a milkshake with Santa’s Cookies and Milk ‘Shake,’ complete with cookie butter and vanilla ice cream, mini chocolate chip cookies, and topped with a delicious chocolate Christmas tree and sprinkles.
