Peanut milk is a little unconventional, sure, but it makes for a delicious smoothie when combined with bananas and cocoa powder!

  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 2 Tbsp. cocoa or cacao powder
  • 1/4 cup plain coconut milk yogurt

  • 3 ripe bananas, cut into chunks and frozen

      Somer you sound like me and my friends! You know you are great friends when you can call each other “temptress” in good fun. And I agree! I’m thinking of having this for breakfast now. I’m sure I have a few frozen banana’s in the freezer.
      This shake would be perfect with Somer’s Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars. I’m swooning over those too!

        Friends that you can lovingly insult means the best kind of friendship 😉 Oh the combo of the cookie bars and this shake sounds positively dangerous.

    My afternoon sweet tooth is starting to show it’s lovely face, making this smoothie shake extremely irresistible! If only I was at home where my kitchen, and more importantly, my blender is so I could whip one of these beauties up! That’s what weekends are for, right?:-)
