Inspired by this yummy treat, I threw almond milk (~3 cups), 2 bananas, 2 tablespoons of raw cocoa, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, some chocolate chips ~1/4 a cup and a lot of ice into our blender....
Yum... I should have taken a picture. Next time we make it, I will--trust me, there will be a next time. The girls decided that we should call this drink "Chocolate fever." Kira has a fever (and so do I), and it was yummy. She felt better after drinking it. I just feel tired. This cold is NO fun.
Oh, next time, I'll probably make it, then pour 1/2 out for Tia and Nat and then add a tablespoon or so of PB for Kira and me.
Note, when making stuff in a blender, it's very easy to guess and not be too precise in measuring. I just kind of "eyeball it" and see if it looks like the right texture. If it's too thick, I add more liquid. Usually, it's not thick enough. I usually add ice in that case. (You could add another banana if you wanted, but it might turn too banana-y.) I added the chocolate chips at the last minute 'cause it seemed to need a little more chocolate and I thought it would give it a nicer texture. Have fun with your blender! It's hard to go wrong!
