Clean Eating Brownie Batter Milkshake

Do you remember those out of control loaded milkshakes from your childhood?!? I dream of those and constantly CRAVE a creamy dreamy milkshake. The one big problem is of course those totally loaded milkshakes are crazy unhealthy and loaded with empty calories … and trust me you can’t just have a sip, you have to have the whole thing! Well enter our clean eating version of your favorite chocolate milkshake, made totally healthy, so healthy in fact you could have it for breakfast! I love it as an afternoon treat though!

We start off with any kind of carton non-dairy milk (like almond, coconut, or cashew), plus a little canned coconut milk for extra creaminess. Then adding a little chocolate protein powder (make sure you like the taste of the protein powder), cacao powder, pitted medjool dates, maple syrup, nut butter, and ice and voila your childhood milkshake dreams come true!

Cheers,
