Sometimes, I sneak dessert before dinner.* I get home from work a few minutes before my husband. This barely leaves me enough time to sneak a bite of sweet. When I'm lucky, he waters the garden, gets the mail, and chats with the neighbors. That gives me more time to indulge my sweet tooth.
I commonly reach for a chunk of dark chocolate. Or, a bite of whatever Dessert For Two creation we have laying around. This week, I've been alternating bites of almond flour snickerdoodles and these Peach Chai Froyo Shakes.
To make this 3-ingredient dessert, you're going to need frozen yogurt, chai concentrate and a ripe peach. (And a noiseless blender so no one can hear you and judge you for eating dessert before dinner).
The combination of peach and chai is unexpected, but fresh and delicious. It's like a summertime version of chai. The cinnamon and ginger flavors reminds me of peach pie.
I could get used to fresh fruit in my daily cup of chai. What am I going to do during winter when the peaches aren't in season? Oh, right---that's why we have pumpkin chai. Chai for all seasons!
*By sometimes, I mean only the days that end in 'y.'

Love the idea of adding fresh peaches to chai! I think we might be skipping dinner tonight and going straight to dessert!

YUM! I love chai and i love peaches BUT I also had the most amazing peach pie ice cream last week. And this reminds me of it! We would all be lying if we didn't admit to having dessert before dinner!

Nothing wrong with a little dessert before dinner! I love chai, but I hadn't thought to combine it with peaches -- sounds amazing! I will definitely have to try this.
