Healthy Chocolate Frosty

recipes Jan 16, 2020

Have you ever had a Wendy's Frosty?

 

I've never been a huge fast food person. However, I vividly remember the first time I had a Frosty. Age 8, on a hot summer day and a Wendy's opened up in our town. My mom decided to splurge and take us through the drive thru for a small treat. I'd had my fair share of ice cream, but this was different. Light, creamy, airy, and so delicious!

 

The beauty of being an adult is that I could go and get a Frosty whenever my little heart desires. OR... I could make a healthier version in my kitchen instead! Which is what I do now. This Healthy Chocolate Frosty hits the spot when I'm craving something sweet or for post workout refuel. The sweet potatoes help to give it an extra creamy texture while also adding in a good complex carb source.
