I actually came up with this idea a few years ago. It was during wrestling season in high school and I was cutting a lot of weight. As a food lover weight cutting is especially hard and I would often get random cravings as if I were a pregnant women. I believe it was a day or two after thanksgiving when I couldnt decide between a bowl of ice cream or a slice of apple pie. I ended up throwing both of them together in my Magic Bullet and creating an apple pie vanilla ice cream milkshake. It came out pretty good from what I remember.

Yes Drew! Hamburg Inn has been making these as long as I can remember (rhubarb pie shake is fantastic when available). They also do the same thing with cake (red velvet is my favorite).

Actually, the Pie Shake was originally created by the Hamburger Inn, a major political campaign stop in Iowa City, IA.

It’s even listed in their Wikipedia page, so obviously it’s canonized.

I’m from up in Canada and this seems like no big deal… You can get fresh ice cream or gelati mixed on a frozen slab with any number of things from fresh apple pie to birthday cake,!(Personal fav)
Don’t see what the diff is blending it all up, i prefer leaving chunks, but the birthday cake is smooth as silk, premixed! The vanilla birthday cake ice cream taste like birthday cake and looks like plan ol’ vanillla!
