    Avocadon’t even get me started on this smoothie!

    Avocado in a chocolate smoothie? You better believe it! Added in with all the other ingredients, the avocado helps make this smoothie creamy and delicious while adding some healthy fats to this decadent drink — without tasting like guacamole.

    Recipe notes

    • This recipe makes a single 10 oz serving smoothie.
    • You can also freeze the smoothie in popsicle molds to have popsicles later.

    Can you prep this smoothie in advance?

    Yep you sure can! Milk and nut butter can be measured out and stored for later. Chocolate pretzels can be made in advance as well.  

    Pre-made pretzels can be purchased for this recipe, but to cut on sugar and control the flavor, making your own is a quick and easy alternative.

    Equipment

    • Blender

    Ingredients

    • 1/2 Avocado
    • 1 1/2 cups Almond or Cashew milk
    • 1/2 cup Peanut or Almond butter
    • 2 tbsp Cocoa powder
    • 1/4 cup Pretzels
    • 1/4 cup Bittersweet chocolate chips

    FOR THE POPS, ADD ONE OF THE FOLLOWING

    • 1/8 tsp Xanthan gum or
    • 1/4 tsp Cornstarch or tapioca starch

    Instructions

    • Heat the chocolate chips in a bowl in the microwave for 10 second intervals until most of the chips are melted. A double-boiler on the stovetop also works! Stir to finish melting. Dip the pretzels into the chocolate and set aside. They can be placed in the freezer for a couple of minutes to set up while you get your other ingredients together, but take out when the chocolate is set.
    • Add all ingredients to your blender and blend until smooth. Garnish with extra chocolate pretzels.
    • Pop Variation: Use coconut milk instead of almond milk for a creamier texture, blend all of the chocolate pretzels, and add xanthan gum, cornstarch, or tapioca starch.
    • If the smoothie is too thick for you or your liking, just add a bit more liquid.

    Notes

    Prep this smoothie in advance

    Milk, nut butter, and cocoa powder can be measured out and stored for later. Chocolate pretzels can be made in advance as well.  
    Pre-made pretzels can be purchased for this recipe, but to cut on sugar and control the flavor, making your own is a quick and easy alternative.
    The avocado can actually be frozen!  If you freeze it, mash it and place in a ziploc bag and press as much air out as possible.
