Ingredients

• 1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese (OR LF plain greek yogurt, OR you could replace the water with milk and nix the cottage cheese all together)

• 1 tbs cocoa powder
• 2 tbs sugar free white chocolate instant pudding mix
• 1 drop peppermint extract (yes only one drop- it’s very strong)
• 2 tbs splenda/stevia/sweetener of choice (more or less to achieve desired sweetness)
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 full tray of ice cubes
• optional: 1 small York Peppermint Patty to blend in for the small flecks of chocolate, and crushed candy cane to garnish!
• (*Optional- I use 1/2 tsp Xanthax gum in all my protein shakes to increase thickness/creaminess. (You can get this from meijer in the gluten free section, or whole foods, or health food stores, just a pinch of it makes your shake sooo thick and creamy!)
