Recipe #53 - Pumpkin Pie Milkshake

Pumpkin flavored treats are my very favorite thing about the fall.  In fact, when I was pregnant with my son many moons ago, the one thing that I craved more than anything else was pumpkin donuts.  At the time, I couldn't find them anywhere in Utah.  So my cute mother had a family-friend ship them overnight to me from Indiana (where I grew up and we knew where to find pumpkin donuts).  That, my friends, is how much I love pumpkin stuff.  Pretty sure I ate the full dozen donuts too...um, might have shared one with my hubby,

Needless to say, I was thrilled to try the Pumpkin Pie Milkshake recipe found on page 244 or online here.  I did double it though, so I could bring myself to share with the family.

This is another fast and easy recipe.  You put everything but the graham crackers into the blender.

Blend until smooth.

Crush up some graham crackers.

Pour the shake into a glass and top with the graham crackers.

It actually reminded me of the pumpkin shakes at Arctic Circle, but they are smooth enough to use a straw to drink.  No spoon required.

My family inhaled these.  I had planned to take a picture of them drinking them, but they were gone before I knew it.  If you like pumpkin, even if you don't like pumpkin pie, you need to try these.  And invite me over when you make them.  I'll verify that they recipe tastes correct...
