Chocolate Avocado Milkshake

I JUST MADE THIS AND IT WAS SO DELICIOUS THAT I HAD TO COME STRAIGHT TO MY COMPUTER AND tell everyone( sorry my cap locks button was down)haha!! anyway this shake is so rich and creamy. i added a half of organic banana to it. yum!!! you cant even tell a veggie is in this. i think it tastes way better than any fast food chocolate drink by far!! thanks for the awesome recipe.

DELICIOUS! And I had my doubts! I had my dad try it (but didn’t tell him what’s in it) and when I told him there was a whole avacado in it he was very surprised.

I doubled the recipe and cut the milk down in half so it was creamier. I also added 2 tablespoons of peanut butter..YUMMM!!!!

You can also add ice cubes to the blender and some coffee instead of milk, and have a healthy frapaccino!!!! LOVE IT!!!!

I agree. This is great and you cannot taste the avocado at all, which was interesting. I used almond milk instead of milk and only 1 T of sugar and thought it was delicious.

Actually,the avocado is a FRUIT, not a veggie, which just makes it even more appealing! mmm.

Another good thing to try: do the avocado shake, but instead of the cocoa, squeeze a whole lime in it (Cuban Avocaso milshake). Everything else is the same, and it is DELICIOUS.

I use agave nectar instead of sugar, and it is fabulous!!

You can add anything with flavor to the basic shake (minus the cocoa). Mango is good!!

OH!!! And you have to try using th ejuice of one lime instead of the cocal for a Cuban shake. Delish!!

True- avocado is technically a “fruit”, just like tomatoes, though people do treat it in the kitchen as a vegetable.

Great idea Kelli!

I love agave too…

Sounds good. I’ll have to try tonight.

This rocks my world. I just got a magic bullet blender and this was the first thing I’ve tried. I will never drink ice-cream based milkshakes again.

Delicious, but can’t really taste the avocado at all. I’ll probably cut the chocolate way down next time, but if you’re not a huge avocado fan, stick to the recipe.

Hey
this sounds great i will try it with turbinado sugar(raw sugar)

I tried this yesterday and it was yummy. I will cut down the vanilla extract next time, but that is because I am not that fond of the extract flavor. I will absolutely make this again and try to serve it to my young nieces.

Ok – this recipe has been kid tested and approved My nieces said it was the best milkshake they ever had (my 8yr old niece even wrote me a thank-you note). My 12yr old niece knew something was up – she kept asking if it had fruit in it. I feel guilty for not telling them it had avocado in it, but they revolt against everything, so I will give it some more time before I spill my secret. I did omit the vanilla and only used 1/2 the brown sugar – still fantastic!

Great news!! Teenagers soooo know the score, but think of all the potassium and good stuff she’ll be getting with the avocado
