Cocoa and protein powders
 
I was looking at the recipe for chocolate milkshakes in the Recipes Forum and would really like to give it a shot. I've looked at the cocoa powders available at my local grocery store, but I've only seen those that have added sugar. Also there are so many protein powders available (and I know nothing about them!) that I wouldn't know what to look for in that area.

Can you ladies give me some brand names to look for that are SB friendly?

Look in the baking isle. I use Hershey's Special Dark cocoa powder since I prefer dark to milk chocolate. It's got 20 cal per tablespoon.

I use Hersheys as well. Didnt realize it was going to be so bitter tasting though. I couldnt get that taste out even after using a lot of other things with it. Now when I do a milk shake I do soy or skim milk, cinn, van extract, a little coffee and some ice! Pretty good!

The baking aisle....duh! Thanks. :)

I went to GNC and got an unflavored soy protein powder. The shake tasted great and will be something I'll make a lot once school starts!
