Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • Unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk from a carton)
  • Avocado (ripe; about half of a medium)
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder or cacao powder
  • Nut butter (almond butter or peanut butter; no sugar added)
  • Chia seeds or ground flaxseed
  • Protein powder (low-carb; chocolate or unflavored)
  • Low-carb sweetener (allulose, erythritol, or stevia drops)
  • Ice cubes
  • Vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of sea salt (optional, boosts chocolate flavor)

Method
 

  1. Add liquids first: Pour 1 cup unsweetened almond milk into your blender. Starting with liquid helps everything blend smoothly.
  2. Add creamy base: Scoop in 1/2 ripe avocado and 1 tablespoon nut butter for richness and texture.
  3. Bring the chocolate: Add 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder.
  4. Boost fiber and thickness: Add 1 tablespoon chia seeds or ground flaxseed.
  5. Protein time: Add 1 scoop low-carb protein powder. Chocolate flavor deepens the taste; unflavored keeps it clean.
  6. Sweeten smartly: Add your preferred low-carb sweetener to taste. Start with 1–2 teaspoons of granulated sweetener or a few drops of stevia.
  7. Flavor bump: Add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract and a tiny pinch of sea salt if using.
  8. Chill and thicken: Toss in a handful of ice cubes.
  9. Blend: Start on low, then increase to high for 30–45 seconds until completely smooth and creamy.
  10. Adjust: Too thick? Add a splash more almond milk. Too thin? Add a few more ice cubes or a bit more chia and blend again.
  11. Serve: Pour into a chilled glass or a to-go cup and enjoy right away.
