Cake Batter Milkshake!

Tomorrow I will be 25! Wow, I almost feel like an 'adult!'

Anyways, I wanted to celebrate (a day early) with this healthy Cake Batter Milkshake!

It tastes amazingly close to 'real' cake batter, but it is completely healthy! Yet, it seems so 'naughty' and delicious, that I just had to share it with you! ♥

I want to give a huge "thank you!!" to the talented and creative Chocolate Covered Katie for the original recipe!



Cake Batter Milkshake
  • 1 banana, frozen
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2-3 teaspoons coconut oil, melted
  • 2/3 cup almond milk
  • 1 tablespoons coconut flour (for cake-y-ness)
  • Optional: sprinkles
Blend ingredients together. Add some sprinkles, pre-blending, and then add more on top!

A recipe for vegan coconut whipped cream can be found here!

Have you made any healthy 'cake batter' recipes?

Do you have anything special planned? Since I will be working tonight until 8, I am planning on surprising Jon with Valentine's Day dessert!

I am baking up some love in the form of chocolate covered strawberries, peanut butter "Hershey Kiss Cookies" (Jon's favorite), and vegan cupcakes. ♥

If you want a healthy, yet still heavenly & delicious version of chocolate covered strawberries... give this recipe a try!
