Description
Prepare this rich, thick shake that satisfies chocolate and peanut butter cravings while strictly adhering to ketogenic macro requirements. It uses high-fat ingredients for maximum creaminess.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter (no added sugar)
- 1/4 medium avocado (for extra creaminess)
- 1 tablespoon MCT oil or melted unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Sweetener to taste (e.g., 10-15 drops liquid stevia or monk fruit)
- 4–6 ice cubes
Instructions
- Place the almond milk, heavy cream, cocoa powder, peanut butter, avocado, MCT oil (or butter), vanilla extract, and sweetener into a high-speed blender.
- Add the ice cubes last.
- Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and thick. Stop and scrape down the sides if necessary.
- Taste the shake and adjust the sweetener if needed.
- Pour immediately into a glass and serve.
Notes
- For a thicker, colder shake, use frozen avocado chunks instead of fresh.
- If you prefer a protein boost, add 1 scoop of unflavored or chocolate keto-friendly protein powder.
- Substitute almond milk with coconut cream for an even richer texture.
- If you do not have avocado, use 2 ounces of softened cream cheese for thickness.
