Shake Me Up Before You Go Go: The Red Velvet Cake Shake

There's a reason why you've never tried a Red Velvet Cake Shake. 

That reason, of course, is that the recipe relies on you having an extra slice of Red Velvet laying around, and as anyone knows, this is a highly unlikely occurrence.

However, after this weekend's Red Velvet Cake tasting, I found myself in such an unlikely situation. And given some time to consider it, a beautiful phrase came to mind: Red Velvet Cake Shake. Could it possibly be as good as it sounded?

The answer, of course, is yes. This shake is basically made of awesome: it has tangy cream cheese frosting, rich, moist cake, and sweet, creamy ice cream--all mixed into one pretty pink parfait.

Of course, if your instinct is to cry "too much", I do have a suggestion: call it a smoothie. No, this doesn't actually alter the recipe, but don't you feel healthier already?

Red Velvet Cake Shake

Ingredients 

• 1 slice Red Velvet Cake
• 2 big--and I mean big--scoops of ice cream (I used strawberry; I think that vanilla would also work well)
• 1/2 to 3/4 cups milk

Procedure

Put all of the ingredients in a blender. Blend until the shake has reached your desired consistency--shorter if you like little bits of cake in your shake, longer if you like a smoother texture. Add more ice cream for a thicker shake, more milk for a thinner one, as needed.

Swap in homemade yellow cupcakes (iced and sprinkled) for the red velvet cake and the milkshake tastes just like cake batter. Mmm!

In a fit of hunger and fattiness, I've make a 'smoothie' with ice cream, chocolate cake with (blue!) buttercream frosting, milk, and oreo cookies. I hid the evidence as quickly as possible and savored my 'smootie' in a water bottle that promoted 'healthy eating habits & physical activity' from my health care provide. :)
