Hi Hollowers,
Welcome to another week here at Hedgehog Hollow, this week I have an amazing shake recipe for you…Chocolate Orange! In England at Christmas a Terry’s chcolate orange was my traditional favourite, I haven’t found them here in the US (sad face). However, when I had a shakeology I wondered if I could recreate it and the good news is yes! So here is homage to the amazing chocoalte orange…just tap and unwrap!
Chocolate Orange Shakeology Recipe
8 fl oz of base (I like an unsweetened almond milk and coconut water mix)
1 packet or scoop of chocolate shakeology
1/2-1 tsp of pure orange extract
Extra chocolate blast: 1 tsp pure chocolate extract or 1 tsp of sugar free chocolate Jello
1 tablespoon of orange rind (optional)
Ice to taste (I had about 8 cubes)
There’s lots of customisation options here depends how much chocolate and orange intensity you like, I add it all for a nice balance. This is such a great flavour combo, not only does it satisfy my chocolate craving and give me a taste of home its citrus blast cuts through that post workout sweat! You could easily make this as a full fat milkshake with ice-cream if you are not on a healthy eating plan too!
Today also marks the first day of my second round of 21 day fix! I shall update you on my progress next week. Our refrigerator broke so I added an extra week off and with Greg being away last week Maddi and I indulged in everything we fancied!!
Join us tomorrow for a card project, something I made a few weeks back, it will be a photo post, super easy to make but so pretty. I am working on a special video series with a brand, I am part of a new challenge and design team, plus I took last week off to spend with Maddi as she had an extended Easter break. I hope to have a video tutorial for you later in the week too as I have a great idea I need to show you!
Happy Shaking!
Try to find this chocolate at World Market stores. I have seen them there before. My daughter loves them too. The stores are all over Ohio.
Thanks I hadn’t thought of trying there, they sell the best tea bags and marzipan!
I have no trouble finding Terry’s chocolate orange here in Ontario Canada. My favourite is the dark chocolate one.
I have never tried the dark one, I used to like the popping candy ones!
I agree, those chocolate oranges are one of the best treats I have ever tasted! It’s great that you have found a way to make the healthy shakes taste good. I am encouraged by your example to have a better lifestyle. Thank you.
Thank you so much, it’s nice to still beable to have good tastes and takes away temptation of full fat treats!
Oh Alexandra, I agree with the above comment. You encourage me, also, to have a healthier diet. I’m not sure of orange and chocolate together, but dark chocolate might make it work.
🙂
I recommend giving it a go, the chocolate bar is my favorite and this tastes like a melted version!
Oh Alexandra the chocolate & orange is a wonderful holiday memory. They are available in the US. I live on the west coast & have found them at Trader Joe’s, Pier One, Cost Plus and other stores that sell imported candy & treats. be well RobinB
This dumpling recipe sounds amazing! Could I use this and positioned dumplings right into a fruit sauce, like rhubarb???persian store
