Chocolate Coconut Fudgesicles (Print Version)
Cold, chocolatey fudgesicles with coconut milk and dark chocolate that seriously hit that craving for a lighter frozen snack.
# Ingredients:
→ Base
01 -
180 ml whole milk, 2%, or your favorite unsweetened plant milk (skip the nonfat stuff)
02 -
1 can (about 400 ml) full-fat coconut milk or a rich coconut cream
→ Chocolate Components
03 -
225 g dark chocolate (go for 70% cacao or higher), roughly chopped
04 -
3 tablespoons (around 18 g) unsweetened Dutch cocoa powder
# Steps:
01 -
Go ahead and fill your popsicle molds with the chocolatey mixture. Hanging onto horizontal molds? Let the mixture chill at room temp for about 10 minutes, just until it thickens a bit.
02 -
Put those filled molds right into your freezer. They'll need at least 6 hours in there, or until they're firm all the way. Take them out of the molds only when you're ready to eat.
03 -
Drop in the chopped chocolate while your mixture is hot. Keep whisking until everything's smooth and glossy.
04 -
Set your saucepan over medium-low. Give it a whisk every so often and heat gently until tiny bubbles just start to show. As soon as it simmers, turn off the heat right away.
05 -
Grab a medium heavy-bottomed pot. Grab your coconut milk or cream, your milk, plus the cocoa powder, and whisk them together so you don't see any lumps left.
# Notes:
01 -
Better chocolate really does make a difference—try to pick one that's 70% or higher cacao for best flavor and texture.
