Description

This Decadent Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie blends creamy peanut butter, rich cocoa, and smooth almond milk into a luscious, indulgent treat perfect for a satisfying snack or dessert. With options for dairy-free and vegan substitutions, it’s a versatile smoothie that balances sweet and savory flavors for a delightful experience.


Ingredients

Liquid Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk (regular or vanilla)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free or vegan)

Dry and Flavoring Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 6 tbsp Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend (or to taste)
  • 3 tbsp Dutch processed cocoa powder
  • 1/8 tsp sea salt (optional)


Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Measure and prepare all ingredients, ensuring everything is at room temperature to achieve easier blending and a smoother smoothie texture.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Add all ingredients to the blender jar—almond milk, heavy cream, peanut butter, sweetener, cocoa powder, and optional sea salt. Liquids first can aid the blending process but order is flexible.
  3. Blend the Smoothie: Puree the mixture starting at low speed and gradually increasing to high. Blend for 30-60 seconds or until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and free of peanut butter chunks.
  4. Adjust Sweetness and Consistency: Taste the smoothie and add more sweetener if needed, blending briefly after each addition. If too thick, add almond milk; if too thin, add ice cubes and blend again.
  5. Serve: Pour into glasses and serve immediately. Optionally garnish with cocoa powder, whipped cream, or melted peanut butter drizzle for extra flavor and decoration.

Notes

  • Using room temperature ingredients ensures a smoother smoothie.
  • The recipe is easily adaptable for vegan or dairy-free diets by substituting coconut cream for heavy cream.
  • Adjust sweetness to your preference using the monk fruit sweetener.
  • If the smoothie is too thick, adding liquid gradually helps reach desired consistency.
  • Garnishes add visual appeal and extra flavor but are optional.
