Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup frozen yogurt I used Greek
  • 3/4 cup Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Almondmilk Cashewmilk blend
  • 1/4 cup Red Velvet cake mix
  • 1 scoop protein powder optional, use chocolate or vanilla
  • 2 oz light cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Blender

Method
 

  1. In a blender, combine the frozen yogurt, almond milk, red velvet cake mix, and protein powder. Blend them together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. You’ll want to make sure there are no lumps from the cake mix; it should have a velvety texture.
  2. Next, take a separate bowl and whip together the cream cheese and heavy whipping cream. Use an electric mixer to beat them until stiff peaks form. This step is crucial as it gives the shake that luxurious lift and lightness.
  3. Once the cream mixture is ready, gently fold it into the blended shake mixture. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream; you want to maintain that airy quality for the best results.
  4. After everything is well combined, add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined. Taste the shake; if you prefer it sweeter, feel free to add a little more powdered sugar.
  5. Pour the shake into two tall glasses. Don’t rush this step—take your time to admire the beautiful red color!
  6. To finish it off, top the shake with a generous amount of whipped cream and sprinkle with your favorite toppings. You can use chocolate shavings, sprinkles, or even crushed nuts for added texture.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy your creation! This Skinny Red Velvet Shake is perfect for a sweet treat any time of the day.

Notes

If you have leftover shake, store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Just give it a good stir before enjoying.
You can freeze the shake in ice cube trays for a fun addition to smoothies later on!
Feel free to swap the red velvet cake mix for other flavors like chocolate or vanilla for a different twist.
Consider pairing your shake with light snacks like fruit skewers or homemade granola bars for a balanced treat.
This shake is suitable for breakfast, dessert, or a mid-afternoon snack! It truly is a versatile treat.
