Homemade Wendy's Frosty (Healthy and High Protein)

Ava Cruz

Report

A chocolatey, cold, creamy cross between a milkshake and soft serve. This Homemade Wendy’s Frosty is hard not to love especially when it’s made with lighter ingredients and packed with protein.

Instructions

Add all of the ingredients to a blender.
Blend on high for 40-60 seconds or until ice and banana are thoroughly combined. Blend longer if any chunks remain. The texture is what makes this Homemade Wendy’s Frosty so great.
Serve immediately. Garnish with PBfit, crumbled G2G bar (code: APOP for a discount), chocolate chips, whipped cream, etc.

Notes

If you want to make this vanilla flavored, simply omit the cocoa powder and use vanilla protein powder.
The Xanthan Gum is completely optional, but does create a fluffier Frosty consistency. Don't go over board with how much you add, however. You'll end up with a strange texture and upset stomach.
I recommend using Specialty Dark Cocoa Powder, it makes this frosty decadent and rich - SO yummy!
