DULCE DE LECHE FRAPPE SMOOTHIE
You can throw just about anything in a fruit smoothie to enhance its flavor such as honey, tofu, jams, any combination of fruits, peanut butter, juices, etc., but keep in mind it will affect the nutritional values.
In blender or food processor, combine;
1 pint dulce de leche ice cream, like Haagen-Dazs
1 1/2 cups cold chocolate milk and
2 cups ice cubes.
Blend mixture 2 minutes, or until smooth. Divide mixture evenly among 6 glass mugs. Top each with 1 tbs. frozen whipped topping, like Cool Whip, thawed. Sprinkle each with ground cinnamon, if desired.
About Chocolate Milk: A beverage that contains protein ensures sustained vitality.
The proof: Bicyclists who drank chocolate milk during their workout biked 50% longer and felt less fatigued than those who drank sports drinks, according to a study in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism. " Lactose, a sugar in milk, provides quick energy", explains Joel M. Stager, Ph.D., lead researcher on the study. "Then the body slowly breaks down milk protein to provide a constant stream of usable glucose".
