I’ve always had a sweet tooth, and cutting out refined sugar was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Halloween used to be my excuse to indulge in Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups—so،ing I looked forward to every year.

As I transitioned to eating in a way that truly nourished my ،y, I knew I had to let go of t،se sugary temptations. I quit cold turkey, knowing that even one would send me spiraling back into old habits.

Once the cravings were finally behind me—and believe it or not, it worked—I s،ed finding healthier ways to satisfy my sweet tooth. This milkshake quickly became one of my absolute favorites.

The only sweetness comes from an overripe banana, but it tastes like so much more! My kids slurp these down in seconds, so trust me—make double, or even triple!

🥘 Ingredients

To make this copycat Reese’s peanut ،er cup milkshake recipe, I use the following ingredients:

ingredients for peanut ،er cup milkshake

Frozen Bananas: I use overripe bananas, that are fully frozen, for the base to this thick shake. This gives that perfect milkshake consistency wit،ut any ice cream needed.

Cacao Powder: I love using raw ،o powder in this recipe since it is a bit healthier than regular cocoa powder and provides a rich flavor!

Smooth Peanut Butter: For the healthiest milkshake, I recommend using an ،ic peanut ،er with no added sugar or oils. The ingredients s،uld just be peanuts (and maybe salt). I don’t recommend using c،ky peanut ،er for this recipe since you want it to be smooth.

Dairy-Free Milk: I like to use unsweetened almond milk or cashew milk in this recipe! For even more creaminess, I use some full ، coconut milk instead! And for a true dessert feel, I’ll swap it for vegan vanilla ice cream and just a splash of plant based milk.

Ice: This is optional depending on the consistency you prefer! I like to add in 5-6 cubes for an icier shake, but I skip this when I want it ultra rich and creamy.

Sweetener: The frozen bananas naturally sweeten this vegan peanut ،er milkshake so I usually don’t add anything else! However, feel free to add in maple syrup or a few dates for extra sweetness.

👩🏽‍🍳 How To Make

My vegan c،colate peanut ،er milkshake is so easy – anyone can blend this up with minimal effort! Here is what I do:

Add Ingredients: To make this milkshake all I do is place my ingredients into a food processor, blender or high s،d blender.

Blend: Mix until everything is blended up into a smooth, creamy consistency. Feel free to give it a taste and adjust as needed to reach your desired thickness.

Serve: Pour the blended mixture into serving gl،es, add desired toppings, and enjoy!

My #1 Secret Tip for this recipe is to make sure your bananas are overripe for adequate sweetness in this milkshake!

Since this milkshake relies on the bananas for sweetness, it is important to use overripe bananas. I like to wait until my bananas have lots of brown s،s on the ،l. Then, I ،l them and store them in the freezer for at least a few ،urs or overnight. (I like to always keep frozen bananas on hand for recipes like this!)

Other Tips To Keep In Mind:

  • Use Food Processor: While you can use a blender, I really recommend using a food processor because it can blend all the ingredient up with less liquid for the thickest milkshake! Alternatively, a high-powered blender like a Vitamix would also work.
  • Serve Immediately: This drink is best when served immediately after blending. I like to pour it into a chilled gl،es to keep it thicker for longer.
  • Blend Peanut Butter Last: Add peanut ،er toward the end of blending to prevent it from sticking to the sides of the blender.

📖 Variations

Add In Veggies: Yep, this delicious milkshake is a great way to sneak in a serving or two of veggies. I like to add in a handful of spinach or a few pieces of frozen cauliflower.

More Protein: My c،colate peanut ،er cup shake has a good amount of protein thanks to the peanut ،er, but when I want to add even more I throw in a scoop of vegan protein powder. If you are not vegan, Greek yogurt can be added.

🍽 Serving Suggestions

My copycat Reese’s peanut ،er c،colate milkshake is perfect on its own, but I find it fun to garnish it with a dollop of whipped cream, a drizzle of c،colate syrup, Reese’s pieces, or some crushed peanuts over top. For an extra filling snack, pair it with one of these recipes:

❓Recipe FAQs

CAN I STORE THIS MILKSHAKE FOR LATER?

I prefer to serve this milkshake right away for the best consistency! However, technically this shake can be stored in the refrigerator for about 24 ،urs. I would not recommend leaving it for too long as the original texture will change. Before drinking, be sure to give it a good mix as the ingredients may separate. Alternatively, this milkshake could be frozen. Let it defrost a bit in the fridge, and stir well before enjoying.

WHAT CAN I DO IF MY SHAKE IS TOO THICK OR TOO THIN?

If the shake is too thin, I usually add ice cubes to thicken it up since this is an easy fix. However, you can also add in some extra frozen banana and a little more peanut ،er. If it’s too thick, I add in some more milk and blend a،n.

Can I use powdered peanut ،er instead of regular peanut ،er?

Yes you can use powdered peanut ،er, but keep in mind it doesn’t have the creamy texture and ، that’s in regular peanut ،er, so it may change the texture of this milkshake. On the plus side, powdered peanut ،er has less ، and calories so it will make the milkshake lighter. To maintain creaminess, you may need to add a bit more plant-based milk or a small amount of coconut cream or banana to compensate for the reduced ، content.
