Chocolate Mac Nut Açaí

Although we mainly know the açaí bowl in its standard form as a healthy meal or snack, açaí can serve as a wonderful dessert! This recipe features chocolate and macadamia nuts, both of which are highly nutritious, making this an extremely nourishing treat. We love the way cacao powder enhances açaí’s chocolatey flavor. Rich, creamy, fresh–this is the kind of decadent, good-for-you dessert you’ll crave after a long day in the sun!

1 bar Traditional Açaí

1 frozen organic banana
2-3 oz almond milk
2 tsp organic raw cacao powder

Slice open the ends of the softened açaí bars with a sharp knife or scissors and add to mixture.
