Ingredients
Scale:
1 ½ cups coconut milk (or any dairy milk of your choice)
½ cup sweetened condensed milk (or coconut cream for a dairy-free option)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
¼ cup granulated sugar
Pinch of salt
Chopped nuts (optional)
Shredded coconut (optional)
Chocolate chips (optional)
Fresh berries (optional)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together to ensure there are no clumps.
Pour in the coconut milk, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk everything together until smooth and creamy.
Before pouring into molds, taste the mixture. Adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar or cocoa powder if desired.
Carefully pour the chocolate mixture into your popsicle molds. Leave a little space at the top to allow for expansion during freezing.
If your molds require sticks, insert them into the mixture. Ensure they stand upright and straight.
Place the molds in the freezer. Allow the popsicles to freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid.
To remove the popsicles from the molds, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds. Gently pull on the sticks to release the popsicles.
