š Instructions
- Gather your ingredients! Make sure your berries are washed and any frozen ones are slightly thawed. It's much easier to blend when they aren't rock hard. You can even pre-measure everything to save time. I like to prep ahead on busy mornings!
- Next up: Toss everything (the frozen berries, banana, peanut butter, milk, vanilla extract, and ice) into your blender. I tend to use my trusty Ninja blender, but any high-powered one should work like a charm!
- Now for the fun part - blending! Begin on a low speed to prevent a berry explosion (been there, done that!), then gradually increase the speed until you reach a smooth, creamy consistency. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. If it seems too thick, add a splash more milk or water.
- Give your smoothie a taste test! Adjust the sweetness or add a dash more vanilla if needed. Remember, taste is subjectiveācustomize it to your liking!
- Pour your delicious Berry Cookie Dough Smoothie into a glass. You can get fancy with this and use a cute glass. Garnish with fresh berries or a dollop of peanut butter for extra visual appeal (and taste!)
- Sip, savor, and enjoy your wonderfully delicious smoothie! Let me know how it turned out, and don't forget to share this recipe with your friends and family!
š Notes
- Adjust the amount of milk for desired consistency. If you prefer a thicker smoothie, use less milk. For a thinner smoothie, add more.
- Feel free to substitute your favorite berriesāstrawberries, blueberries, raspberriesāor even a mix!
- If you're feeling adventurous, add a scoop of your favorite protein powder for an extra protein boost!.
- Make sure to use a high-powered blender to get a perfectly smooth texture. Otherwise, you might have some chunky bits!
