Oh yeah! It’s Thirsty Thursday! We are all on antibiotics this week due to some illnesses that have been going around our house, so as much as I would love a cocktail at the end of this stressful week of sick kids and sick husband, that will have to wait until next week.
I have been craving a milkshake and the kids will never turn down an ice cream treat. However, rather than my my old standby, an old fashioned chocolate malt, I decided to put a nice fall twist on a milkshake and make a Pumpkin Pie Shake. Let’s face it, I am getting antsy for pumpkin pie, and I needed something to tie me over.
This time of year I have pumpkin in the house and I had a little bit leftover from some pumpkin donut holes I made (sharing the recipe soon).
Pumpkin Pie Shake (makes 1 large shake or 2 medium or 3 small)
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup vanilla ice cream
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
pinch of ground nutmeg
pinch of ground ginger
1/2 cup milk (I used 2%)
Whipped cream for garnish (optional)
Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth and well incorporated.
So creamy and delicious! It will get you in the mood for Thanksgiving.
