This Vegan Chocolate Coconut Shake with Granola is rich and totally satisfying, yet loaded with wholesome goodness! The perfect summer treat!
I am so excited to share this chocolate coconut shake with you. Summer is here and things are HOT and humid in Tennessee. Enter this Vegan Chocolate Coconut Shake and the heat is somehow bearable. Seriously, so good!
It’s basically chocolate indulgence meets healthy and wholesome. Coconut milk and cacao powder create the rich, creamy flavor, while the frozen bananas and dates thicken and sweeten things up. The combination is made even better by the pile of toppings. My favorite part.
I drizzled these beauts with creamy peanut butter then topped them with a handful of granola and dark chocolate chunks. As the final touch and a way to boost the nutrition, I crumbled and layered my favorite protein bars,(whey and soy free!) using the Cacao Sea Salt and Peanut Butter flavors.
