Shakes, Snacks, And Breakfasts Made With Cookies & Creamy Shakeology

Cookies & Creamy Shakeology does more than fill a shaker cup. This roundup covers the whole range: blended shakes, no-bake snacks, a scoop of nice cream, and breakfasts for good measure.

Most of these take 15 minutes or less of hands-on time. Each recipe name links to the full ingredients and steps.

Recipes at a Glance

Calorie counts come from each recipe card.

Shakes, from Simple to Loaded

Start with the flavor on its own, then work up to shakes with fruit, nuts, and graham crackers. Every one takes about five minutes in a blender.

Plain Cookies & Creamy Shake

Water, ice, and a scoop of Shakeology. That’s the entire ingredient list for Just Cookies & Creamy Shakeology, and it’s a good way to get to know the flavor before you start adding things. It takes about five minutes. One shake comes in at 160 calories.

Coconut Shake

Swap the water for unsweetened coconut milk beverage and the shake gets a little tropical. A banana goes into the blender with the ice and Cookies & Creamy Shakeology. Get the Coconut Dreamy Cookies & Creamy Shake recipe for the amounts.

Banana Split Shake

An ice cream parlor banana split inspired this one. Frozen strawberries and banana blend with vanilla almond milk and Cookies & Creamy Shakeology, and a handful of peanuts brings the crunch you’d normally get from the topping. The Cookies & Creamy Banana Split Shake comes in at 365 calories per shake.

Cherry Cheesecake Shake

For something that looks like dessert in a glass, try this layered shake. Part-skim ricotta and lemon zest give the base its cheesecake flavor, and crushed graham crackers go on top. You blend the frozen cherries separately and spoon them over the top. Find the steps in the Cookies & Creamy Cherry Cheesecake Shake recipe.

Snacks and Frozen Treats

These skip the shaker cup altogether. Make a batch, stash it in the fridge or freezer, and pull out a serving when you want one.

Cookie Dough Bites

Almond butter, rolled oats, and pitted dates form a dough that you roll into balls. Two scoops of Cookies & Creamy Shakeology go in, along with maple syrup (or honey) and cacao nibs for a chocolate-chip feel. A batch of 12 takes about 10 minutes. If the dough crumbles, the Cookies & Creamy Shakeology Cookie Dough Bites recipe says to add up to 2 tablespoons of almond milk.

Nice Cream

Freeze banana chunks the night before, or for at least four hours. After that, you need about five minutes. Frozen banana, Cookies & Creamy Shakeology, vanilla extract, and a splash of almond milk go into a food processor or high-powered blender until very smooth. Make the Cookies & Creamy Nice Cream when you want a bowl of something cold.

Breakfast with Cookies & Creamy

The same flavor works at the start of the day, too. Pick from a smoothie bowl, warm oatmeal, or waffles.

Smoothie Bowl

This bowl starts with almond milk, ice, and Cookies & Creamy Shakeology. The fun part is the topping: banana, fresh strawberries, almonds, cacao nibs, chia seeds, and a dash of cinnamon. For a thicker base, the Cookies & Creamy Super Smoothie Bowl recipe suggests more ice or half a cup of frozen cauliflower florets.

Oatmeal

Simmer rolled oats in water, then stir in almond milk, Cookies & Creamy Shakeology, and a little vanilla extract. Cacao nibs on top add crunch. It’s ready in about 10 minutes and makes one serving with 362 calories and 22 g of protein, according to the Cookies & Creamy High-Protein Oatmeal recipe card.

Waffles

Pull out the waffle iron for this one. The batter mixes Cookies & Creamy Shakeology with baking powder, cinnamon, an egg, plus vanilla and butter extract for flavor. You’ll find butter extract in the baking aisle of most grocery stores. Two waffles are ready in about 15 minutes, and the Cookies & Creamy Shakeology Waffles can go in the freezer for up to a month.

Recipes You Can Make Ahead

The recipe cards include storage notes for these:

• Cookie dough bites: refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
• Nice cream: freeze in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Let it soften for 15 minutes before serving.
• Waffles: freeze in an airtight container for up to 1 month.

The shakes, smoothie bowl, and oatmeal are best made fresh. For questions about cooking and baking with Shakeology, see BODi’s Shakeology ingredients and storage FAQ.

Pick Any Shakeology Flavor

Every recipe here is built around Cookies & Creamy Shakeology, and that’s the flavor each card calls for. Most of them are flexible, though. Swap in another Shakeology flavor and you’ll still get good results, so start with what’s already in your pantry.
