Do you ever get introduced to a clever new recipe and you think…
How the heck did I not think of this??
I had this experience this weekend when I saw the latest video post from our friends Olivia and Hannah from Biggest Loser. I’ve mentioned many a-time that I am HUGE fans of these ladies, and I find them SO inspiring!
They’ve started posting a lot of videos on YouTube, as well as maintaining a blog called MyFitspiration. If you haven’t checked them out yet, click here to see what they’re about.
Now, when I saw on Twitter that they had posted a PB and Chocolate Hot Chocolate this weekend… I literally gasped. When I watched the video and found out that they used my favorite secret ingredient PB2, you know what… I gasped again.
By the way, I had shared previously that PB2 was available online… I’m finding it my local grocery stores now. I’ve seen it at Whole Foods Market and at King Soopers/Kroger. Start looking for it locally… it’s out there!
Being Picky McPickerson, of course… I decided to make some modifications, and I came up with the following UH-MAZING and UH-MAZINGLY EASY peanut butter hot chocolate. Thanks, Olivia and Hannah, for this delicious Fitspiration! I heart you both! xoxo
Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate
Inspired by Biggest Loser’s Hannah and Olivia
Serves 1
INGREDIENTS
1 packet Sugar-Free Hot Chocolate
8 oz. water
1 Tbsp. PB2 Peanut Butter Powder
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Fill a mug with 8 oz. of water. Heat in the microwave until boiling.
2. Pour contents of the hot chocolate packet into the mug.
3. Add 1 Tbsp. of PB2 to the mug, and mix well. Note: I used a small whisk to combine the ingredients.
4. Drink your tasty new drink, and enjoy! Note: I moved my cocoa into a new mug so it would look better for this picture. In doing so, I noticed all the PB2 didn’t quite combine, but it definitely gave a PButtery flavor to the hot chocolate. At the very bottom though, you might have some PB2 residue. Don’t let it deter you, as it tastes delish!
