Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons dairy-free chocolate chips or chopped vegan chocolate
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 2 cups ice cubes
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional Toppings:
  • Coconut whipped cream
  • Shaved vegan chocolate or cocoa nibs

Instructions

  1. Melt the dairy-free chocolate chips with half of the almond milk in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl until smooth.
  2. Whisk in the cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and pinch of salt until fully combined.
  3. Let the mixture cool slightly to avoid melting the ice during blending.
  4. In a blender, combine the cooled chocolate mixture with the remaining almond milk and ice cubes.
  5. Blend until thick and frosty, like a milkshake or slushie.
  6. Pour into a glass and top with coconut whipped cream and shaved chocolate, if desired.

Notes

  • Add cinnamon or espresso powder for a flavor twist.
  • Use canned coconut milk for extra richness.
  • Try a drop of peppermint extract for a minty version.
  • Add vegan protein powder for a nutritious boost.
  • Best served immediately; re-blend with a splash of milk if frozen.
