Want to curb calories a bit? Only crumble half a cookie onto the shake and replace the coconut milk with almond milk/
Top the cookies and cream protein shake with any cookie you love. I prefer these homemade crumble cookies.
Frozen banana will make the smoothie creamier than a fresh banana. Either way, make sure to use a very ripe banana as it’s sweeter!
The nutritional breakdown uses one store-bought chocolate chip cookie split between two servings and does not include whipped cream.

The protein powder you use will alter the taste and texture of the smoothie:

Beef protein powder: My personal favorite. If you use Equip protein, the smoothie will be sweeter but thicker. If you use Paleo Pro Protein, the smoothie is as close to natural as it gets. Code "mamabear" on both will save you some money.
Vegan protein powder: If you're using a pea-based protein powder, the smoothie will have a thicker texture, and if using a fermented protein, you'll probably have to add extra liquid. Vegan proteins aren't always sweet, so adjust the turmeric shake as needed.
Egg white protein powder: This will froth your smoothie up a lot.
