This is a top notch example of adapting the old fashioned recipes to a healthier version and while preserving its original yummieness. Here is my version of Sarah Britton's of mynewroots.blogspot.com Raw chocolate milkshake miracle, find here recipe here:

You can also read all about the health benefits of cacao (not cocoa!) on the same page. One day I hope to be as knowledgeable as Mrs. Britton.
Here is my adaption, serves 1:
1/2 banana (added value if it's frozen)
1 tbsp raw cacao nibs
1 dl soy milk
20 grams high quality dark chocolate
1 tbsp maple or agave syrup, honey might also work
1/4 avocado
1 tsp mixed raw nuts (I used cashews, almond and brazil nut)
1 tsp roasted hazelnuts (adds a certain nutella flavor)
1 tsp hemp seeds
1 tsp hemp seeds
1-2 ice cubes
Place all in a blender and blend till smooth. You should end up with a thick chocolatey milkshake.
Mix it up, You could add or replace the following:
Blueberries
Raspberries
Strawberries
Mint
Nuts could be replaced by pastes, just make sure your using unsweetened versions, so that your not back tracking on the health
aspect of this milkshake.
