The chocolate chips and cocoa powder give a dominant chocolate taste while the fruits help make the popsicles fudgy and thick.
Chocolate Avocado Popsicles Ingredients
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips– has the perfect amount of sweetness for this recipe. However, if you prefer a bit of bitterness, you can use dark chocolate chips or bittersweet chocolate chips instead.
- Avocado and Banana– are responsible for making the popsicles creamy instead of icy.
- Milk– gives the mixture a rich and creamy taste and texture. If you want it dairy-free, you can replace it with almond milk.
- Cocoa powder– I used unsweetened to make sure the popsicles do not become overly sweet.
- White sugar– you can reduce the calorie and sugar intake by using 2 packs of Splenda instead.
- Vanilla extract– adds a delicate flavor and aroma to the mixture.
How to make Chocolate Avocado Popsicles
No muss, no fuss! All you need is a saucepan, blender, and popsicle molds to make them. Making the chocolate mixture will not even take you more than 10 minutes. The hard part is waiting for them to set and freeze!
Make the chocolate fudge mixture. Add the chocolate chips, milk, cocoa powder, sugar, and vanilla extract to a small saucepan set over low, medium heat. Whisk until the chocolate has completely melted.
Blend the fruits. Pour the melted chocolate fudge mixture into a blender. Place the avocado and banana in the blender and process until the mixture turns thick and creamy. Do not rush through this, as it will take a few minutes to get the right consistency.
Pour and Freeze. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds and tap it several times on the counter to remove any air pockets.
Place the stick caps and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until they have firmed up. We prefer freezing them overnight to be absolutely sure they’re ready to go!
Recipe Tips when Making Chocolate Popsicles
- Love salted chocolate? Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the popsicle before serving. It tastes like a chocolate pretzel – so good!
- If you do not have popsicle molds, you can pour the mixture into small paper cups instead. Cover them with foil, then pierce the center with wooden sticks as an easy “DIY method.”
