You can make this one using healthyy ingredients and it tastes just as good. I use 1 cup of unsweated almond milk, 1 banana, 2 TBS of cocoa powder, and a dash of stevia to taste. You can also use some almond butter if you like. It turns out great this way and it is healthy at the same time since there is no sugar besides the natural sugar in the banana.

I thought this tasted alright. I got caught up in the reviews that it might be bland or not sweet enough. So, I ended up adding a few drops of vanilla and a packet of splenda. I don't think it needed it though. I used 1% milk. Overall, it just kind of tasted like a very lightly sweetened icy chocolate milk. It did make 3 servings not 1.

I did as another user suggested and omitted the ice and used frozen bananas instead of fresh. To do this I flash freeze my sliced bananas and then store them in a zip lock bag until I'm ready to use them. Instead of using chocolate syrup I used a TB of Dutch process coco powder, and added a handful of spinach. What a YUMMY treat! The kids and I loved it.

This smoothie was pretty good but it was a little bland. I used frozen bananas & added one tablespoon of sugar to make it much better.

Great! A great smoothie for a chocolate or banana craving! I added about a tbs of sugar, and an extra banana, along with extra chocolate. The banana and chocolate were just because I love my chocolate and banana! My brother had one too, and he loved it. Dark chocolate syrup made it super-yummy :)
