Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings 2 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large frozen banana, sliced
  • 3/4 cup silken tofu (about 6 ounces)
  • 1 tablespoon light peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons PB2 (powdered peanut butter)
  • 1–1.5 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4–1 cup milk of choice (dairy or unsweetened almond/oat/soy)
  • Optional sweetener: 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup, honey, or a date, to taste
  • Pinch of salt (optional, enhances chocolate and peanut flavors)
  • Ice (optional, a few cubes if you want extra frostiness)

Instructions
 

  • Prep the banana: Use a fully ripe banana for the best sweetness. Slice and freeze overnight in a bag or container.
  • Add liquids first: Pour 3/4 cup milk into the blender. This helps the blades catch the ingredients.
  • Layer the rest: Add silken tofu, frozen banana, PB2, light peanut butter, cocoa powder, chia seeds, vanilla, and a tiny pinch of salt.
  • Blend until smooth: Start low, then increase to high for 30–45 seconds. If it’s too thick, add more milk a splash at a time.
  • Taste and adjust: Add a touch of sweetener if needed, or another 1/2 tablespoon cocoa for a darker chocolate flavor. Blend 10 seconds more.
  • Serve immediately: Pour into a chilled glass. For texture, sprinkle extra chia seeds or cocoa on top.
