This recipe is one of my new favorites as of late. I’ve been up to my elbows in dessert-making with my next book, and along with a giant salad everyday, a healthy, no refined-sugar added treat like this is just what I need to balance it all out.
I’ve been making this smoothie about twice a week now, and it always makes me smile. The secret ingredient is in the orange oil, which comes from the fabulous Boyajian (if you haven’t tried their oils [and vinegars!] yet, I urge you to do so. They have taken my baking, cooking and candy-making to the next level). Like most of their products, you only need a tiny amount of orange oil to make a big impact on flavor. The addition takes this smoothie from good-for-you to glamorous, and tastes every bit as decadent as a standard issue milkshake. Maybe even more so.
Go on, drink up!
Double Chocolate Orange Milkshake Smoothie
Yield: 2 servings
Place all ingredients, except for the whipped coconut cream into a blender. Blend on high speed until smooth, scraping the sides of the blender, and carefully stirring the ingredients, as needed.
Divide the blended smoothie between 4 standard sized drinking glasses and top with whipped coconut cream. Serve immediately.
Hey everyone :) We made this with a few changes because we had no oil or nibs. We used soy milk because we ran out of almond lol and added some raw almond butter.
It was such a sweet and delicious smoothie that we decided to see freeze it in ice cube trays for “ice cream” cravings when we get them!
Yum, this looks so good and so super healthy! Why hello breakfast for tomorrow.
yummy!
This sounds DELICIOUS! And now I’m eyeing their garlic oil… Mmmmm
their garlic oil is the BEST. I use it on everything!!! The other day I was actually making roasted potatoes and couldn’t find my bottle and had a mild freak-out thinking I’d have to go with regular olive oil. I may have developed a slight dependency on the stuff. :)
Wowser, this sounds insanely good! You’d never even know it was good for you ;)
What a beautiful photo for such a delicious recipe! Love it!
This looks great.
I am also really looking forward to your sweets book. :)
This sounds delicious!!!
I think I actually have some orange oil in the pantry from some previous baking extravaganza, plus all the other ingredients! So I might try making this for an afternoon vegan treat!
Looks beautiful and delicious!
That sounds wonderful, Allyson! I need to hunt down some orange oil.
