Chocolate Hemp Seed Thickshake
This chocolate hemp seeds thick shake is a healthier chocolate milkshake packed with superfoods!
Equipment
- High speed blender (i.e. Vitamix, Blendtec)
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups almond milk
- 2 tablespoons hemp seeds
- 2 tablesoons cacao powder
- 2 medjool dates, pits removed (if your dates are small, add one more)
- 1 cup frozen cauliflower florets
- 1 frozen banana, broken in thirds
- ½ cup ice
Instructions
- Add the ingredients to a high speed blender in the order listed above.
- Blend thoroughly for 1-2 minutes until the ingredients are thoroughly combined. If you have a Vitamix, you may need to use the tamper to help blend it. If you do not have a high speed blender, you may need to add a bit more almond milk if it is too thick to blend. If you want a milkshake type consistency, don’t add too much almond milk.
- Best enjoyed immediately.

Notes
If you like things super sweet, add 1 additional date. For a coffee version, substitute some cold brew for a portion of the almond milk. If you want it even thicker, you can add more frozen cauliflower, frozen banana, or ice.
This is meant to be consumed immediately. If you let it sit in the fridge for too long, it will become very runny and will no longer be similar to a milkshake.
If you are sensitive to caffeine (like me), I would not recommend drinking this the latter half of the day. You could substitute carob for the raw cacao or make this a different flavor by adding some strawberries, cherries, etc.
