Pecan Pie Milkshake

What is Thanksgiving without pie?!
It was 78 degrees here today though,
so I'm thinking we might need to shake it up this year, milkshake it up.

The idea for this post was entirely inspired by friend Andrea from Salty Canary.
I recently attended a milkshake event she hosted at the Mixbook headquarters.
Decadent, over-the-top and marvelous.
She demonstrated how she makes her infamous Pumpkin Pie Milkshake.
Since my husband is all about Pecan Pie at Thanksgiving,
I thought I would try my hand at turning it into a frozen feast.

Following Andrea's style,  
the real eye catcher in the delicious treat is a tiny slice of pie garnish...

I mean, don't you just want to drink it in?

I know my husband is going to be thankful for this...

Pecan Pie Milkshake
makes 3 shakes

1 cup ice cold milk
4 cups vanilla ice cream
1/2 pecan pie in a jar
(many stores have it, I get mine at Trader Joe's - its a mixture of molasses, pecans and spices)
whipped cream and tiny slices of pie for topping

Combine first 3 ingredients together in a blender and pour into glasses, leaving room for whipped cream.  Place in freezer.  Cut tiny slices of pecan pie and carefully place onto skewer cut to correct size for your glass.  Remove glasses from freezer, top with whipped cream then add your pie garnish.

Chocolate Pecan Pie Scream- the 2nd Easiest Thanksgiving Dessert Ever


Last week, I made the claim that our
and then I made 
Chocolate Pecan Pie Scream...

I think most people are either on 
Team Pumpkin Pie or Team Pecan Pie.
(don't even get me started on the story of when we had the big pie mix-up and 
we ended up with 2 Pecan Pies and no Pumpkin, our friend Jim is still mad at me)
I say, make both!

I used the amazing 
Trader Joe's Pecan Pie Ice Cream...


put a heaping scoop into each individual graham cracker pie shell...

smoothed out the ice cream...

topped with Chocolate Magic Shell...

and place a candied pecan
(also at Trader Joe's)
on top of each...

Want a bite?
