    Sounds good but low cal or not it is still a lot of sugar especially at night which spikes insulin right before bed. Have you tried chocolate protein powder? I make a milkshake with choc whey protein a tbsp instant coffee and ice/water

    I do have the sugar free hot chocolate mix so I will use that and maybe substitute Chocolate Unsweetened Almond Breeze for the skim milk. I do have the chocolate whey protein shakes a lot so this will be a different tasting treat! Thanks for the idea!

    Yum-O! I made this the other day with the original recipe. Tonight, I used Swiss Miss Sensible Sweets hot cocoa (25 calories!) and added a 1/2 tbsp of Jif Natural peanut butter. SO GOOD. 146 calories!

    Sounds delicious!

    I usually satisfy my ice cream cravings with this:

    8 oz skim milk
    6 oz frozen strawberries
    about 3 Tbls splenda
    a dash of Vanilla

    Put the above in a blender and whip until smooth (I usually have to stop and stir a few times). I comes out the consistancy of soft serve and tastes like homemade strawberry ice cream. I'm not sure about the calories, I always counted it as a protein and a fruit.:ohwell:

    FavDaughter1 - I thought about it and peppermint extract didn't really cross my mind, thats a good ideas. What I did decide to do was to get the syrup flavoring and add an ounce. 1 ounce adds like 80 calories to the recipe. It tastes delicious.
    I didn't even thiink about the syrups, and they probably have sugar free too! Sounds yummy :)

    I've been buying the Skinny Cow products which are rather expensive. I'm going to make this in larger batches and keep it in the freezer. Anybody got any ideas on making a strawberry version to swirl into the cheesecake flavor?

    Here's another option: (It's In the Recipe Database)

    Frozen Peanut Butter/Chocolate Pudding Shake
    Calories: 124
    Fat: 3g
    6 Ice Cubes
    4 Tbs Cool Whip Lite
    1/2 Cup Skim Milk
    1/2 Package Jell-O Instant Sugar/Fat Free Chocolate Pudding Mix(Dry)
    1 Tbs Chocolate PB2 powder

    Place all ingredients in blender and pulse until ice cubes are broken up. Blend until smooth (about 2 minutes). Pour into freezer container. Freeze overnight. When ready to eat, microwave on high for 45 seconds. Enjoy.
    Options: For variety, drop the PB2 and change the flavor of the Instant Pudding Mix. Examples: Cheesecake, White Chocolate, Vanilla, Banana Cream, Butterscotch, Lemon, & Pistachio.

    OMG!.....Amazing! thank you so much, I am a choc-o-holic! and this did it for me...even better, I used the "diet" swiss miss at only 25 calories, fat free whipped topping at only 40 cals, and 1/2 cup skim milk at 45 cals= ONLY 110 CALORIES!! My husband,huge peanut butter fanatic had exactly what I had but of course had to add 1 tablespoon of skippy creamy peanut butter and it was still only 205, really not bad...perfect serving size as well! :o)

    This post made my night last night. My husband even likes it! My modifications got the recipe down to 125 cals per serving, so this ones definitely a keeper. I cant think of any other snack that I eat that is chocolatey that comes in that low. You are awesome, you have made my month. Hurray! :D

    So, I made a shake....but mixed it up a little after reading different suggestions in this thread...

    1/2 cup skim milk
    1/2 cup water
    1 scoop whey protein
    1/4 package Jello Instant Chocolate Pudding FF/SF
    6 ice cubes
    Approx 205 calories...you could cut some calories if you left the protein powder out...

    Oh my word!!!! Was it ever tasty.....since I'm a huge coffee fan, and LOVE Sonic's Java Chiller (a gajillion calories), I will add a tsp of instant coffee to it and see how that works...

    Bump!

    Someone earlier asked if this could be done w/o the cool whip. I'm curious too.... I bet it affects the volume / texture..:ohwell:

    I used to live by a place that sold Frozen Hot Chocolate but it also had a hint of peppermint in it. Any ideas on how I can incorporate that?

    peppermint extract maybe?

    even better - blend a frozen banana, chocolate pudding cup, 1/4 cup milk, T cocoa, a few ice cubes. AMAZING.
