Chocolate Covered Strawberry Smoothie (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Smoothie Ingredients

01 - 1.5 cups frozen strawberries
02 - 2 scoops vanilla or cookies & cream ice cream
03 - 2 tablespoons chocolate sauce

→ Optional (for the rim)

04 - 0.33 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
05 - 1 teaspoon coconut oil

# Instructions:

01 - Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips with the coconut oil in the microwave or on the stovetop over low heat, stirring until smooth. Pour the melted chocolate onto a flat plate and spread it into a circle slightly larger than the rim of your glass. Dip the rim of a mocktail or smoothie glass into the chocolate, twisting gently to coat. Use a spoon to create a dripping effect by adding extra chocolate around the edges. Place the glass in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the smoothie.
02 - In a blender, combine the frozen strawberries, ice cream, and chocolate sauce. Blend until smooth and creamy.
03 - Pour the smoothie into the chilled, chocolate-dipped glass. Garnish with a chocolate-covered strawberry and an extra drizzle of chocolate sauce if desired.
