Ingredients & Substitutions
Frozen bananas are the star here; they give this frosty its creamy texture. If you don’t have frozen bananas, you can freeze fresh ones for a few hours. Also, feel free to adjust the cocoa powder to your taste—more for a richer chocolate flavor, or less if you prefer it milder.
Tips & Notes
- •I keep my bananas in the freezer for last-minute smoothies and frosties! Just peel, slice, and freeze in a bag.
- •If you want a little extra flair, top your frosty with some coconut whipped cream or a sprinkle of cocoa nibs!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I'll add a tablespoon of almond butter for a nutty twist.
- •You can also make it minty by adding a drop of peppermint extract!
Storage & Freezing
This frosty is best enjoyed right away, but if you have leftovers, you can freeze it in an airtight container. Just remember to let it sit out for a few minutes before digging in again, as it will solidify!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use something other than bananas?
You can try using silken tofu for a different texture, but I really recommend sticking with bananas for that classic frosty taste.
