Eight items make up the treats section, and they split into three groups. Chocolate chip cookies open the range at $1.29 for one or $2.49 for three. Fried cheesecake bites sit in the middle at $4.89. Five hand spun milkshakes fill the top, from $4.99 for vanilla, chocolate or strawberry up to $6.99 for the Nerds Strawberry Milkshake.

Every milkshake here is small size only. Zaxby’s does not sell a medium or large shake, which keeps the calorie figures more predictable than at chains where the same shake spans 400 calories across three cups. Vanilla is the lightest at 570 and the Nerds version is the heaviest at 1310.

That Nerds shake is the single highest calorie item on the entire Zaxby’s menu, ahead of the Chicken Finger Plate, the loaded fries and every platter portion. Rainbow Nerds mixed through a strawberry shake, then topped with whipped cream, more Nerds, gummy clusters and a cherry. It costs about $6.99 and it is worth knowing what you are ordering.

The milkshakes ranked by calories

Vanilla at 570 is the lightest, then chocolate at 670 and strawberry at 680. Birthday Cake sits at 730, mixed through with sprinkles. The Nerds Strawberry Milkshake at 1310 is nearly double the next heaviest, and the toppings account for most of that gap.

Price tracks the same order. The first three cost $4.99, Birthday Cake is $5.19 and the Nerds shake is about $6.99. Two dollars separates the lightest shake from the heaviest, and 740 calories separate them as well.

Cookies and the three pack arithmetic

A single chocolate chip cookie is $1.29 and 170 calories. Three cost $2.49 and 500 calories, which comes to 83 cents each against $1.29 for one. Buying the three pack saves 46 cents per cookie, the largest proportional discount anywhere on the Zaxby’s menu.

Cookies are baked in the restaurant daily rather than shipped in. They are also the cheapest item in this section by some distance, and the only treat that works as an add on to a meal without pushing the total past ten dollars.

Fried cheesecake bites

Bite sized cheesecake in a light batter, fried and served with strawberry sauce, at about $4.89 and 700 calories. It prices below every milkshake except the three cheapest and lands between the chocolate and Birthday Cake shakes on calories.

The strawberry sauce that comes with it carries about 180 calories on its own, so the dessert as served is closer to 700 with the sauce than the batter alone suggests. Sharing the order across two people is how most tables handle it.
