SIDE NOTES:
~ Very simply. Very delicious. This is one of the first things we make when we get a gallon of fresh, raw milk from our local farm.
~ To turn this into more of a thick, dessert-style, milk shake, simply increase the milk to 1 cup and use frozen banana instead of fresh (slice banana & freeze on tray in a single layer overnight or at least 6 hours).
~ Using peanut butter is delicious, but it’s also very good with sunflower seed butter (tried pecan butter, but didn’t like that particular combo).
~ Of course, you can omit the nut butter and just make this a plain chocolate smoothie. Likewise, I guess you could omit the chocolate and make this a peanut butter/banana shake as well.
Enjoy =)
