Notes

I used Dymatize ISO 100 Rich Chocolate but you can use any whey protein powder you have on hand. Please note that the nutrition may change depending on which type of protein you use. 

You can also substitute the black onyx cocoa powder with regular cocoa or cacao powder but the color won’t be as dark. I also notice that the black onyx cocoa gives it a richer chocolatey taste.
