Don’t speak to me until I have my first coffee of a morning! But despite having several mocha smoothies – which I love! – on the website, I’ve never made one for breakfast – lunch, yes, but not breakfast. So maybe that’s why I’m asking is this breakfast or dessert I’m offering here? I think it will pass for anytime of day … or night? Lol! Jacqui at DishingDelish is responsible for this delish smoothie. She says …
Creamy vanilla greek yogurt, sweet chocolate chips, and ice combined with bold coffee to create the perfect Chocolate Chip Mocha Breakfast Smoothie. It’s healthy protein and sweet, sweet caffeine rolled all into one tasty morning treat. This is seriously the easiest breakfast you’ll make all week!

Recipe: Delish Chocolate Mocha Smoothie
Serves 2 Ingredients: For the Smoothie:
- 1 1/2 cups Ice cubes
- 3/4 cup brewed Coffee, bold
- 5 oz vanilla Greek Yogurt
- 1/4 cup semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
- 4 tbsp Chocolate Syrup
Optional Toppings:
- An additional tbsp Chocolate Syrup
- whipped Cream
Variations:
- You will get a more dessert-like consistency if you thicken this with 2 tbsp Chia seeds. If you do not like their texture then grind them in a coffee mill before blending to be sure they are really fine. You’ll want to make this 2-3 hours before you serving it.
- If you don’t like sweetened coffee, or do not have / don’t want to use chocolate syrup then use 1-2 tbsp cocoa. Cocoa can be bitter so if the chocolate chips do not sweeten it enough for you then add a few dates till you get the flavor you want. (4 dates and 2 tbsp cocoa will add about 100 calories, but you will save a lot more calories by not using the chocolate syrup.)
- Switch the chocolate syrup for a ripe banana.
Whichever way you make it … Enjoy! Source: DishingDelish Photo: DishingDelish
