These mini cinnamon rolls contain Vanilla Shakeology, almond butter, almond milk, cinnamon, cocoa powder, maple syrup for a hint of sweetness.

The color comes from blue spirulina, which you can find online, or try all-natural blue food coloring.
Day 17: Butter Cookie Shakeology
What’s the difference between a sugar cookie, butter cookie, and shortbread, you ask? It’s all in the ratio of flour, sugar, and butter.
But whatever you call this smoothie, made with Vanilla Shakeology, butter extract, and almond flour, we’re sure you’ll find it delicious.
Because, honestly, who doesn’t love butter?
Day 18: Peanut Butter Cups
Whenever a tray of holiday cookies is placed on a table, which is the first to go? The peanut butter cups, if it’s anything like our house.
