Learn How to make Chocolate Lassi Recipe! The thought of Lassi was making me crazy! So imagine when I made them what I must have done. I gulped 2 glasses of Lassi one after another. My hubby isn’t fond of lassis so I had all by myself. The question was how to make Chocolate Lassi? If I added cocoa powder it wouldn’t have had given great impact on my Chocolate Lassi.
So I combined melted dark chocolate, nutella, cocoa powder, some caster sugar and roasted almonds. My Chocolate Lassi was luscious, creamy, thick, yummy, tangy and sweet also low calorie lassi. Sometimes I feel I can make weird things from chocolate I am so obsessed with them lol ;)….. So I will share my secret of Chocolate Lassi Recipe with everyone today.

I wish I could go there and drink lassis in tall metal glasses one day there. Now there are various kinds of lassis made like cardamom lassi, dry fruit lassi, mango lassi, matka lassi, kesar lassi, namkeen lassi etc …… But it’s quite rare to find anywhere Chocolate Lassi you will have to make them by yourself if you want to have them 🙂
I have bought mangoes and I am thinking which dessert to make from them as yet. May be in sometime I will come to a conclusion. Tomorrows post will be surely something made from mango. Also I have got oranges sometimes I can just eat them rather than thinking too much? right. Now coming back to my chocolate lassi.
