Healthy Chocolate Milkshake

Two words: chocolate milkshake. Chocolate milkshakes caused me to gain more than a few extra pounds back in the day. Now I can't even have ice cream because I get sick from the high sugar content. 

On a hot summer day, or a cold spring day when you have a sugar craving, a healthy chocolate milkshake is in order. Yup you read that right healthy chocolate milkshake! It's thick and creamy like a regular chocolate milkshake except it's even more chocolaty than a normal milkshake- a double win! 

You will need:

• 1 frozen banana
• 1.5 tablespoons dark chocolate cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup milk, skim or unsweetened vanilla almond milk
• OPTIONAL: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• OPTIONAL: Top with organic cocoa nibs

In a blender combine all ingredients and blend until smooth.

Pour and serve. The recipe is easily is doubled or tripled for other people to enjoy also.
