A thick, creamy, and fluffy peanut butter chocolate protein dessert made with simple healthy ingredients. This high-protein treat tastes like a peanut butter cup while staying light, refreshing, and satisfying.
Ingredients
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 1 frozen banana
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Sweetener to taste
- Mini chocolate chips or crushed peanuts for topping
Instructions
- Add the frozen banana, almond milk, peanut butter, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract to a blender or food processor.
- Add the ice cubes and blend until the mixture becomes thick, smooth, and fluffy.
- Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides if needed to ensure even blending.
- Taste the mixture and add sweetener if desired, then blend briefly again.
- Spoon the protein fluff into bowls or glasses.

Notes
- For a lower-carb option, replace the banana with frozen cauliflower.
- Vanilla protein powder can be used for a milder flavor.
