My Pumpkin Pie Blizzard....


Because I want it NOW!

When you live in the country, you try things.  Like pumpkin pie blizzards.  I just knew I could copycat the recipe or at least get it pretty darn close.  You can too!

Pumpkin Pie Blizzard

You need:
vanilla ice cream
milk
sweetened pumpkin pie filling
cookie
pumpkin pie spice
blender


You could make this by hand with a spoon and cup if you have no blender.

In your blender add several scoops of vanilla ice cream and a little glug of milk.
Blend on low or on pulse.  You want it fairly stiff.  If it's too runny, add more ice cream.
Now add a cookie.  I added half of a homemade oatmeal cookie, but you could add a shortbread cookie or any type of cookie you want.  Don't crunch it up, just break it in half and let the blender do the rest. Pulse the blender a tiny bit.  Lastly, add a good glop of sweetened, spiced pumpkin pie filling.  I only had the plain canned pumpkin so I simply added the sugar and spices according to the pie directions on the back of the label.  Don't add the egg or milk.  Pulse a tiny bit.  You want to see the pumpkin swirled in.  Pour into a glass.  For the Big Ta-da, add a generous squiggle of whipped cream to the top and a sprinkle of nutmeg or pumpkin pie spice.  EAT!

This recipe makes me drool, Jody. I've been munching on some pumpkin-raisin cookies today. They are frosted with a penuche (sp?) frosting. Three cheers for pumpkin, for sure.

Take care,
Cassie

Thanks all! This really is SO good. Tonight I took a bowl of ice cream and swirled some of the sweet pumpkin into it and mushed it into another bowl-blizzard. I skipped the cookies for calories sake...Ha!

Enjoy!
