Vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup, caramel, Magic Shell, and Pecan Sandies combined to create a wonderful Turtle Pecan Shake.

Turtle desserts are my weakness. There is just something about caramel, chocolate, and pecans. The other night I made some “fancy” turtle shakes for us. Oh my! They came out great! You’ve got to try them.

This was the first time my kids had ever tried Magic Shell…I know they are deprived. They thought it was so cool!

This shake kind of brought me back to my days when I worked at Sonic in high school. That was such a fun job. I started as a carhop and moved up to being a fountain girl. I got to make all those wonderful treats and drinks. This shake is like something we would have made except for the fancy glass, of course.
