 and then last oops so close to the camera then to plate up I'm going to use some cacao powder wrong thing oops hey guys welcome back to my channel today I want to share with you my recreation of making this amazing Snickers bowl that I had at Hills Organics for brunch one time I think I mentioned it one of my brunch date videos a few weeks back then thought we'd go for brunch a little spontaneous brunch date so we're going off to Hills Organics last time I went there I got this Snickers smoothie bowl and oh my gosh so nice I'm actually going to recreate it in a new future video of mine so today I'm getting around to actually making it I'm so excited so this is a bit of a trial for me now I haven't actually given this a go before but I've looked at a few recipes I'm going to sort of adjust them to make them a bit healthier than some of the other recipes I found online which have a bit more sugar so without further ado let's get straight into the recipe I'll put up the picture just here next to me of what I'm actually attempting to recreate so you guys get an idea of what the attempt is actually going to be like so I'm just going to mix everything in my Nutribullet just because it's a high-powered blender that I have at home and it mixes everything so much easier so I'm just going to chop all the ingredients into here and blend them up in a moment or so so it won't take very long it's a really easy recipe so if you guys do recreate it and you share it online please be sure to tag me in it I love seeing recreations I get so so excited every time you guys tag me in a photo or something that you've made and it's just just makes my day so if you want to do that simply tag me with my only main surname down below there so you guys can feel free to tag me in it but yeah let's get started so I'm going to do this in different sections I think it's easier and just before we get started I've actually gone and bought a smoothie bowl like a coconut bowl I've just ordered the coconut bowls I'm so excited this has been the recipe that we wanted to make for a while I could have used normal bowls but I was really excited to give coconut bowls a try I don't usually order things new I usually just use whatever I have but coconut bowls have been something I've wanted to get for like a year now so this is basically the outside they came in they came in the box which was just over there now I'll show you what they look like underneath there we are so pretty spanking new they look awesome I've always wanted one of these and I've been waiting for a while just to make sure it wasn't an impulse buy sometimes I get those and like I want that but I don't actually need it so I'm finally going around to getting it which I was so excited about so this is just by coconut bowls it's just there I really like them so they're really great sustainable company they use coconut bowls just from the outside of the whole of a coconut so instead of it going to landfill or to waste just to decompose they've actually recreated them into these awesome lovely coconut bowls which I'm sure you've seen online or around here in there now getting straight into the recipe to just start off with I'm going to use two frozen bananas now I've been freezing these for a while I usually just keep a few stopped in my fridge for when I need to use them so if you guys have that on hand that's really handy super handy so if you have them in the skin they tend to go a little bit black which is totally alright now my recommendation is to actually have them peeled before you freeze them but as I'm just keeping them for a while I tend to keep them in the skin just to stop them getting freezer burn or anything so preferably be going to use them pretty soon I would feel them in advance because it's a bit of a challenge to unpeel them yes I'm going to use two frozen bananas and pop them into my blender I'll be right back I'm just going to peel them a few moments later already so I have managed to peel them so I just pretty basically sliced the skin off with like a knife which was much easier than trying to peel it off so next you're going to need about a quarter of a cup to half a cup of almond milk so it just depends on how thick you want your smoothie to be I want it to be like thicker because I'm having it in like a bowl form but if you're having it in a drink say you might want it to be a bit thinner so you might add a bit more milk to it and then you're going to add it in about four ice cubes now a great tip if you want it to be extra creamy is to actually get some coconut cream from the can put it into some ice cube trays and then let it freeze and when you put them into your smoothie it just makes it that much more creamy so it's a really awesome tip to do if you want to try that out I'm going to do that later on when I get my coconut cream out to put on top of my smoothie here but for now I'm just going to use ice cubes whether I haven't prepared any in advance or you can even just freeze some almond milk or plant-based milk that you have in some ice cube trays and you can use those as well which is add a little bit more flavor a little bit more creaminess to your smoothie then you're going to need about one tablespoon of cocoa powder we can do two if you want it extra chocolatey and then last but not least we have the peanut butter essential to the recipe because it snickers you have to have that peanut butter in there so you need about one tablespoon of peanut butter now if you want to add a little bit more sweetness to it you can add in about two teaspoons of maple syrup or if you eat honey you can add in some honey but I'm not going to that today I want to keep a bit lower sugar lower sugar I'm going to also add in some dates I'm going to add in about four dates you can add six but I feel like that's just a little bit too sweet so I'm just going to add in four dates today make sure you pit them as well I was gonna have a few seeds in there if you don't have dates and you have dates to all you need is about four tablespoons of dates syrup as an alternative okay that is basically it for the smoothie part so I'm going to get making that and then we'll jump straight on to the toppings which are like the best bit when you get started on making the coconut cream that goes on top the little cocoa whip part so all I'm going to do is just make my coconut cream that I made in the previous video so if you want to check out how to do that I'll link it in the cards above but I'm going to quickly whip that together also make sure this is super important that each chill and mixing bowl to about 10 minutes before you're going to make the actual coconut cream because this will help to keep the coconut whipped cream whipped and thick otherwise it like melts and kind of goes just deflate it's like a soup plate that just didn't rise do you want to make sure that each chill a bowl before you make the coconut cream but I do mention that in my videos if you want to check out how to do that you'll be in the cards above or the description down below but let's get started on making that and then after my whipped cream I'm going to melt some dairy-free chopped chips I'll just take the rubber band off so you can see there we go and jizzle that over the top as you may have seen in the photo there's a bit of jizzle on top of that then to plate up I'm going to use some cacao powder wrong thing oops then to plate up I'm going to use some cacao nibs put that around the sides of the whip then I'm going to put on a tablespoon of peanut butter and then I'm going to chop up a banana and put that along the center and then it's like the cherry on top of the cake I'm going to put on some shredded coconut I love coconut so yeah there's pretty much if I add anything else I'll be sure to let you know or you'll see when I make it so let's get started in making that now don't know what that was my excitement shining through phenomenal I'm so happy with it even if I do say so myself so I'm so excited to dig into this if you guys want to recreate it again please share with me or
