Thanksgiving Dessert With Breyers® Vanilla Ice Cream

Okay, Thanksgiving hosts, let's talk dessert. Between the turkey, the sides, and figuring out where everyone's going to sit, dessert is usually the last thing on my list. And by Thanksgiving Day, my oven is fully booked.

So this year I'm keeping it simple: one tub of Breyers® vanilla in the freezer and a pumpkin cake I can make in the microwave in about 90 seconds. Every slice of pie, every cake, every leftover cookie gets a scoop. Done.

Even better, Breyers® 48-oz. tubs (in lots of flavors!) are on sale for just $2.67 right now. Here's how to grab the deal and the pumpkin cake recipe I'm serving it with.

Head to Walmart to grab a 48-ounce tub for just $2.67 (reg. $4.67). That's about $0.30 per serving and cheaper than a single slice of bakery pie. I'm grabbing the Breyers® Natural Vanilla, but the Breyers® Homemade Vanilla and a majority of their other flavors also work with this deal.

Why Breyers® Is My Thanksgiving Vanilla

Thanksgiving dessert is all about pie, and pie is better à la mode. Breyers® Natural Vanilla is a classic vanilla made for sharing and pairing with seasonal treats and it's Thanksgiving's #1 Vanilla.* When you've got a table full of picky eaters (hi, shout out to my kids), a crowd-pleaser is exactly what you want.

If you want something a little richer, Breyers® Homemade Vanilla is the extra-creamy option. It's delicious on its own or paired with richer desserts, like a batch of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.

With everything else on the holiday to-do list, this is one decision I don't have to think about. Breyers® is my easy ice cream pick for pumpkin pie, apple pie, pecan pie, and the pumpkin cake below.

90-Second Microwave Pumpkin Cake à la Mode — $0.71 per Serving

This is my secret weapon for Thanksgiving week. It's warm, it tastes like pumpkin pie, and it's ready before the ice cream has time to soften. Make one per guest, or set up a little "pumpkin cake bar" so the kids can make their own.

Ingredients (1 serving):

• 4 Tbsp all-purpose flour

• 2 Tbsp brown sugar

• ¼ tsp baking powder

• ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice

• Pinch of salt

• 3 Tbsp canned pumpkin purée

• 2 Tbsp milk

• 1 Tbsp vegetable oil or melted butter

• ¼ tsp vanilla extract

• 2/3 cup Breyers® Natural Vanilla, for serving

• Per Serving:

  $0.82

Directions:

1. In a large microwave-safe mug (12 oz or bigger), stir together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.

2. Add pumpkin, milk, oil, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth with no dry spots.

3. Microwave on high for 60–90 seconds, until the top looks set and springs back when touched.

4. Let cool 1 minute, then top with a big scoop of Breyers® Natural Vanilla.

5. Optional: sprinkle with cinnamon, crushed graham crackers, or a drizzle of caramel.

KCL TIP: Microwaves vary, so start at 60 seconds and add 10-second bursts. Overcooking makes it rubbery. Use the rest of the pumpkin can for more cakes — one 15-oz can makes about 8 servings.

More Ways to Serve Breyers® This Thanksgiving

• Classic pie à la mode: A scoop of Breyers® Natural Vanilla on pumpkin, apple, or pecan pie. You can't go wrong.

• Warm cookie sandwiches: Press a scoop of Breyers® Homemade Vanilla between two fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies. The extra-creamy texture holds up to rich, chewy cookies.

• Kids' sundae station: Set out a tub with sprinkles and leftover pie crumbles so the kids can build their own while the grown-ups finish dinner.

KCL TIP: Pull the tub from the freezer about 5 minutes before serving for easier scooping — especially if you're serving a crowd.
