Notes

  • Use plain carrot baby food for the best authentic carrot flavor in the milkshake.
  • If you want a thicker milkshake, reduce the milk slightly or add more ice cream.
  • The pumpkin pie spice can be adjusted to taste—add more for a spicier flavor or less for subtle warmth.
  • Candied walnuts add a nice crunch but can be omitted or substituted with pecans or regular walnuts.
  • This milkshake is best consumed immediately to enjoy the creamy texture and fresh garnish.
