Guilt Free Chocolate Covered Strawberry Milkshake

Ingredients

1 cup canned full fat coconut milk (I like @Thai Kitchen brand)
3 cups frozen strawberries, thawed at room temperature for 15 minutes
1-2 tablespoons maple syrup, depending on strawberry sweetness and desired sweetness
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup chocolate chips, optional garnish
Fresh strawberries, optional garnish

Directions:

Blend together all ingredients except chocolate chips + fresh strawberries.
Gently melt chocolate (either using the microwave or a double boiler), dip strawberries in melted chocolate, freeze for a few minutes for chocolate to harden and garnish milkshake with strawberries and drizzle with any remaining melted chocolate.

Chef’s Notes: It’s SUPER IMPORTANT to thaw the frozen strawberries at room temperature for 15 minutes to get the right consistency. If the frozen strawberries are not thawed it will be hard to blend with out adding more liquid which would dilute the flavor.
