Remember my
healthy chocolate softserve? Well this magical mixture is an extension of that goodness. Milkshakes should aways be two things: extra large and extra thick. Yep, this one sure sets the bar high, as it also is chocolatey and healthy, two sets of mega bonus points to the the Triple Thick Mocha Milkshake!
The ingredients are quite tweakable, although I cannot vouch for the results of variations using substitutions. You can't get much better than only 4 ingredients, now can you?
Frozen bananas
Cocoa powder
Coffee extract, or substitute 1 tsp. Instant coffee granules
As the queen of crazy extracts, it would be rude to expect all my readers to keep up with my collection, so I will try to offer substitures as much as possible! Any way, whether you're using extract or granules, you are in for a treat!
Triple Thick Mocha Milkshake makes: 2 small; 1 large
2 bananas cut into chunks and frozen until hard
3/4 cup milk of choice (I used almond)
2 Tbsp. cocoa powder
1/2 tsp. coffee extract (or sub. 1 tsp. Instant coffee granules)
Place frozen bananas and milk and extract.into a blender. Pulse until almost completely smooth. Add cocoa powder, and blend until the bananas have no remaining chunks and the cocoa powder is completey mixed in. Enjoy immediately or stick in freezer for up to a half hour.
