Epic Protein Frozen Hot Chocolate

winter is upon us, and what better way to embrace the chilly vibes than with a treat that combines the richness of chocolate, the creaminess of avocado, and the goodness of plant-based protein?

introducing the epic protein frozen hot chocolate — a nourishing indulgence that will satisfy your sweet tooth and fuel your body!

this frozen hot chocolate isn’t just a feast for your taste buds; it’s a satisfying experience for your body.

the avocado adds a luscious texture, the dairy-free yogurt brings a creamy twist, and the medjool dates provide natural sweetness.

with the protein powder kick, you’ll definitely feel full and fueled for the day :).

there are substitution options if you’re not a fan of something that i used!

swap out the avocado for a luscious blend of frozen mixed berries, bringing a burst of natural sweetness and vibrant color. you could also use frozen cauliflower, and you won’t even taste it!

replace dairy-free yogurt with rich coconut milk to achieve that creamy texture.

opt for the mellow sweetness of maple syrup in place of medjool dates, creating a balanced and sweet flavor profile.

customize your protein boost with your preferred protein powder flavor and add a hint of peppermint extract even.

the process of making Epic Protein Frozen Hot Chocolate is really straightforward and easy!

ingredients:

• 1/2 avocado
• 1/2 cup dairy-free yogurt
• 3 medjool dates
• 1 scoop of vanilla or chocolate protein powder
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup dairy-free milk
• vegan whipped cream or yogurt (for topping)

directions:

prepare ingredients: start by gathering all the ingredients. ensure the avocado is ripe and the dates are pitted for a smooth blending experience.

blend it up: in your trusty blender, combine the avocado, dairy-free yogurt, medjool dates, protein powder, vanilla extract, and dairy-free milk. blend until the mixture achieves a velvety consistency, making sure every ingredient is harmoniously blended.

adjust to perfection: if your frozen hot chocolate is too thick, add a splash more of dairy-free milk until it reaches your desired creaminess. feel free to taste and tweak the sweetness or thickness by adding more dates or milk as needed.

pour and crown: once you’ve achieved the perfect blend, pour the frozen hot chocolate into your favorite glasses. elevate your creation by topping it with generous swirls of vegan whipped cream or dollops of dairy-free yogurt.

serve and savor: your epic protein frozen hot chocolate is ready to be enjoyed! serve it immediately while it’s still nice and frozen.
