Chocolate Crunch Popsicles

Sweets and Treats

September 24, 2020

A super-charged chocolate pop with a creamy crunch. The bitterness from the cacao nibs balances well with the richness of chocolate ice cream.

Yields: 4 popsicles

Chocolate Popsicle

1 can organic full-fat coconut milk

1 t. vanilla extract

1 T. blackstrap molasses

3 T. raw honey or 1/3 c. Date Paste (both are optional)

¼ c. raw cacao powder

pinch sea salt

Chocolate Dip

4 oz. 100% cacao paste/liquor, chopped

4 T. organic virgin coconut oil

2 t. organic grade B maple syrup (optional)

1 c. raw cacao nibs, for garnish

Directions:

Make the popsicles: combine ingredients in a blender and blend on high until combined, about 60 seconds. Pour into popsicle molds and freeze 4+ hours to set.

Make the dip: combine chopped cacao paste, coconut oil, and maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium low heat and cook until chocolate is melted, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

To assemble: have a parchment-lined tray ready. Pour Chocolate Dip into a narrow-mouthed cup, wide and deep enough to fit the popsicles. Pour the cacao nibs onto a wide platter in an even layer.

Un-mold the frozen popsicles. One by one, dip into the chocolate, then roll through the nibs. Place finished popsicles onto the parchment-lined platter and place them back in the freezer for 5-10 minutes before serving.
