Notes

Use a very ripe banana for the best sweetness.
Frozen banana gives the thickest smoothie bowl texture.
If using a fresh banana, add ice cubes.
For a sweeter chocolate taste, use drinking chocolate powder instead of cocoa.
For richer flavor, add peanut butter.
Great as breakfast, snack, or post workout meal.
