Notes
- This recipe makes 1 super large indulgent smoothie or two small ones.
- Both why or vegan protein powder will work however the flavor will be different. The whey smoothie will be sweeter. If you've just switched to a vegan protein powder, it's a bit less sweet. Add in another date if you need to!
- This protein chocolate smoothie is best when eaten as soon as it’s made. It will thin out if stored.
- Likewise, you can store the homemade caramel sauce however it will harden slightly.
- If you need to omit the protein powder, opt for collagen powder and add 1-2 dates to adjust the sweetness of the smoothie.
