Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 1 servings

  • 1 cup almond milk

  • 1 medium banana

  • 1 ½ ounces dark chocolate bar (such as Hershey's® Special Dark), broken into pieces

  • 1 scoop whey protein powder (Optional)

Directions

  1. Combine almond milk, banana, dark chocolate, and protein powder in a blender; blend until smooth.

Homemade Almond Milk:

Combine 2 cups water and 1 cup raw almonds in a bowl; soak for 8 hours. Transfer almonds and water to a blender and blend until pasty.
