This Vegan Samoa Cookie Smoothie recipe is full of delicious flavors and no added sugar. A smoothie that reminds me of my favorite Girl Scout Cookie.
Every time I turn around, I see Girl Scout cookies for sale. Over the weekend they were tabling outside a neighborhood coffee shop. Today a troop is visiting my office to sell cookies. My favorite Girl Scout cookie is the Samoa {or Caramel deLite, in some parts of the country}. Samoa cookies are full of chocolate and coconut goodness.
I created a smoothie matching the same flavors with much healthier ingredients. This recipe uses my favorite unsweetened coconut flakes, available at Trader Joe’s. I add coconut flakes to my yogurt bowl breakfast every day. I love the flavor and crunch.
This Vegan Samoa Cookie Smoothie is naturally sweetened with nature’s candy, Medjool dates. The smoothie also includes unsweetened cocoa powder {Ghirardelli is my favorite}, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, frozen banana slices, vanilla powder, and spinach.
This smoothie is also inspired by my recent trip to Arizona. The resort where we stayed had a juice and smoothie bar, with a Chocolate Banana Coconut Smoothie that was so delicious I ordered it three days in a row.
I hope you love this smoothie as much as I do!
