Ingredients

1 scoop Chocolate whey protein powder or vanilla protein powder with 1 tbsp cocoa
1 cup Unsweetened hazelnut milk can substitute with almond milk
1 tbsp Natural hazelnut butter ensure it is 100% hazelnuts for best flavor
0.5 cup Frozen banana slices provides a creamy, milkshake-like texture
1 tbsp Roasted hazelnuts crushed for garnish and texture
1 tsp Cocoa nibs for a subtle chocolate crunch
0.25 tsp Vanilla extract enhances the wafer-like sweetness
0.5 cup Ice cubes adjust for desired thickness

Notes

For an even more authentic flavor, use a toasted hazelnut butter. If you are watching calories, replace the hazelnut butter with 2 tablespoons of PB2 or similar powdered nut butter. To make this ahead of time, blend everything except the ice and store in an airtight jar for up to 24 hours; shake well before consuming.
