I have edited this recipe, after months and months (and months) of making and perfecting smoothie recipes. All through last autumn to this spring. By summer, they'll be perfect. I hope you like this low calorie shake, it's gone through alot of testing! By the way, I only use half a banana to cut down on a few calories, but if you want the whole banana, go right ahead!
Ingredients:
3/4 cup skim milk
1 -2 teaspoon cocoa powder
1 teaspoon instant coffee or 1 teaspoon espresso powder
2 tablespoons water (optional)
1/2 ripe banana, cut into chunks
1 teaspoon imitation vanilla
5 -6 ice cubes or 1 1/2 cups crushed ice
2 g sugar substitute or 2 -3 teaspoons real sugar or 2 -3 teaspoons splenda sugar substitute
Directions:
1. Place banana chunks into bottom of blender, cover with sugar substitute, then add cocoa powder, and 2 ice cubes (or all the crushed ice).
2. Separately, mix skim milk with instant coffee (or espresso powder) and vanilla extract. Pour into blender and blend on low until the contained ice is fully mixed in and smooth.
3. If using ice cubes, add the remaining 3-4 and blend until no chunks are left.
