Pumpkin Pie Milkshake

On Thanksgiving, after way too much roast turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes, there's bound to be leftover pumpkin pie. But for many, one slice of the classic Thanksgiving dessert is plenty for the year. Enter: this decadent pumpkin milkshake. Give a slice (crust and all!) a whirl in the blender with ice cream and milk and you've got an irresistible treat you'll be craving every day until Christmas. If you don't find yourself with a plethora of slices leftover, fear not. The combination of pumpkin puree, graham cracker, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice has the same effect. 

What complements pumpkin pie? 

Fluffy whipped cream and creamy ice cream are classic pairings for a reason. They complement the pie and let the spices in the filling shine through. For an extra-indulgent touch, drizzle your pumpkin pie milkshake with caramel sauce. Craving a cocktail? Spiced rum or bourbon goes well with the warm spices in pumpkin pie. 

What ice cream flavors pair well with pumpkin pie?
