When I want a little sweet treat I make smoothies.

My base is always frozen banana + milk + oats then do one of these:

Cinnamon + vanilla

Pumpkin + pumpkin spice+ brown sugar

Strawberries/blue berries

Cost like under a dollar to make a good cup and they are pretty filling.

    This is a weird one, but hear me out. Undiluted cold brew coffee mixed with chocolate meal replacement powder and milk. The powder and milk make it really foamy when mixed and it tastes so good; it would probably also be amazing blended with ice.

    I don’t tend to eat until later in the day so this has the added benefit of making me feel less guilty for forgetting to eat.

    Also, frozen pudding cups are yummy.

      “Hear me out”

      describes a lazy chocolate coffee

      I mean it is a unique way of making it, but it’s still just adding coco powder and sugar to cold brew!

        Exactly why I said “hear me out” haha

        It’s not exactly a “little treat,” and it has a different mouth feel to making cold brew with cocoa.

          Hell I just mix strong black coffee with hot chocolate and add half and half or whipping cream for added decadence.

          Bulk, cheapest grocery outlet store coffee and any hot chocolate that isn’t nestle because fuck nestle.
