Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas

2 tablespoons natural peanut butter

1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup almond milk (or milk of your choice)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

1/2 cup ice cubes

Dark chocolate shavings or chocolate chips for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by peeling the ripe bananas and breaking them into smaller, manageable pieces. Measure out the peanut butter, cocoa powder, almond milk, honey (if you're adding it), vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using) to streamline your blending process.

    Blend the Smoothie: In a blender, combine the banana pieces, peanut butter, cocoa powder, almond milk, honey (if desired), vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Add the ice cubes to create a refreshing, chilled smoothie.

      Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed for approximately 30-45 seconds, or until the smoothie achieves a perfectly smooth and creamy consistency. If you prefer a thicker smoothie, feel free to add a little more banana or peanut butter; for a thinner result, simply incorporate a splash more almond milk.

        Taste and Adjust: Pause to taste your smoothie! If you'd like it sweeter or more chocolaty, adjust the flavor by adding additional honey or cocoa powder. Blend again for a few seconds to ensure everything is well combined.

          Serve: Pour the luscious smoothie into tall glasses for a delightful presentation.

            Garnish Creatively: For an appealing finish, top with dark chocolate shavings or chocolate chips. You can also add a few banana slices or a drizzled spoonful of peanut butter on top for an extra indulgent touch.

              Enjoy: Grab a comfy straw, and dive into your delicious, protein-packed Choco-Nutty Delight smoothie!
