Butterfinger Protein Shake



Ingredients1 cup milk (any kind will work)
1 cup ice cubes
1 scoop chocolate protein powder (or, if you're not a fan of protein powder like me, just add 2 tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder)
1 (large) tbsp peanut butter or 2 tbsp of PB2
1 tbsp sugar free Butterscotch instant pudding mix
sweetener, to taste (such as Stevia)

Instructions
Combine all ingredients in a blender and process until well blended (about 1 minute).
Enjoy right away.



Skinny Almond Joy Frappuccino 


Ingredients
¾ c double-strength coffee, chilled
½ c Almond MILK
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/8 tsp almond extract (this is optional, if you have it it just gives the shake more almond flavor!)
1/8 tsp coconut extract (this is optional, if you have it it just gives the shake more coconut flavor!)
1 c ice cubes
sweetener, to taste (such as Stevia)
½ tsp miniature chocolate chips or dark chocolate, chopped (optional)

Instructions
Add coffee, milk, cocoa powder, and extracts to a blender. Pulse until well combined, scraping down the sides as necessary. Add the ice and sweetener (if using). Blend until smooth and no large ice chunks remain. Pour into a glass, sprinkle with the chopped chocolate, and serve immediately.


Notes: To prepare the double-strength coffee, I used 2 teaspoons of instant coffee crystals mixed with ¾ cup water.
