🥣 Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Ingredients
Make sure your cream cheese is softened so it blends smoothly. Measure everything out for quick blending.
Step 2: Blend the Base
In a high-speed blender, add:
-
Almond milk
-
Heavy cream

Sweetener

Banana extract

Vanilla extract
-
Cream cheese

Almond butter (if using)

Step 3: Add Ice & Thicken
Add the ice cubes and blend again until the shake becomes thick, frosty, and creamy.
Step 4: Add “Pie Crust” Flavor (Optional but Recommended)
Add almond flour, melted butter, cinnamon, and salt. Blend briefly (10–15 seconds). This gives that subtle graham cracker crust vibe.

Taste your shake and adjust:
-
More sweetener → for sweetness
