Instructions

Add 1/2 cup whole milk to a blender, followed by 2 cups vanilla ice cream.
Add 1/2 cup ripe pear, chopped, and 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then on medium-high for 20–30 seconds, just until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending.
Check the consistency. Add 1 tablespoon milk at a time if too thick, or 1/4 cup additional ice cream if too thin.
Pour into a chilled 16-ounce glass and top with 2 tablespoons whipped cream and 1 tablespoon graham cracker crumbs.
Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.

Tips

For a sorbet version, substitute the milk and vanilla ice cream with vanilla frozen yogurt and reduce milk slightly for thickness.
