Recipe Directions
1. Blend frozen bananas with nut milk. If your blender objects, add more milk, which will thin the smoothie, or use a spatula to free up the blades.
2. Add the peanut butter, raw carob powder, and any other optional additions. Blend until smooth.
3. After blending, add the cacao nibs. Blend again but only once or twice to keep the cacao nibs crunchy.
Vegan_Vancouverite's Thoughts
By Vegan_Vancouverite This smoothie is an incredible taste explosion! It is very thick and filling–-definitely a treat worth getting up for.
I generally use a nut milk consisting of 1/4 cup dates and 1/4 cup soaked pumpkin seeds blended with 2 1/2 cups of water, keeping the remaining milk in the fridge for later.
Other nut butters can be substituted, but the peanut butter and chocolate combination is outstanding.

This may be just the solution I'm looking for. I always drink my smoothies too fast. But with some nibs blended in, I'll be forced to 'chew' my smoothie! Thanks!

I don't know how most people make their peanut butter but to yield 2 c peanut butter I'll process 1 c of soaked then dehydrated raw peanuts until smooth but a little chunky and then mix it with some raw almond butter and a little almond oil, avocado oil, macadamia nut oil or other moderately light-flavored oil. Enjoy (add salt to taste if desired)

This sounds great. I use Raw Almond Butter. I have a Blendtec and my greensmoothie with chard is so ground up that its a nice creamy consistancy to pure liquid depending on how much water I put in. You can use the Blendtec to make your nut butters as well. Can't wait to taste this. Thanks for the recipe!

I used coconut w/ with the water. Peanut butter, raw cacao powder, 1 frozen nanner and 1 room temp nanner and a squirt of raw local organic honey. The only problem is drinking it too fast rofl. Man it really tastes like reeses cups in a glass. I might add cayenne next time to slow down the process. Now that's a HAWT chocolate.

Reese's peanut butter cup in a glass and raw. What a deal!

FuzzyWuzzy - I find that chewy smoothies can be fantastic, unless of course it's a green smoothie - chewy chard is nightmarish.
humanimal - I'm curious as to how much cayenne you would add - perhaps an 1/8 teaspoon or less?
debbietook - I confess that while my peanut butter is organic, it is probably not raw. Nevertheless, *Samara Anne*'s version sounds wonderful!
