Chocolate Peanut Butter Fro-Yo By Chef Zarnak


Chocolate Peanut Butter Fro-Yo:

Ingredients

Peanut butter 1/3 cup
Cocoa powder 3 tbsp
Butter, melted 1 tbsp

Vanilla essence 1 tsp

Method

Melt 1 tbsp butter in small bowl and stir in 3 tbsp cocoa powder. Set aside.

The idea is to continue adding air into the mix so that it doesn't freeze into a solid mass, but a smooth, creamy blend. Check and mix every 30 minutes until frozen (may take up to 4 hours depending on shallowness of dish). Transfer to storage container with lid and keep frozen for up to a week.
