Margaret Badore has whipped up an easy recipe for homemade fudgesicles that is both healthy and delicious. Using coconut milk and natural flavoring, Badore's recipe puts a vegan twist on a classic frozen treat.
To make the healthy homemade fudgesicles, you will need a can of coconut milk, coco powder, agave syrup, vanilla and a pinch of sea salt. To make the recipe, simply combine all of the ingredients in a blender and pulse for approximately five minutes. Then transfer the frothy mixture to a set of popsicle molds and freeze overnight. The end result is an ice pop that is slightly less sweet than the store-bought kind, but with a more rich chocolate flavor.
Whether you are adhering to a vegan diet or you simply want to whip up some healthy popsicles, these vegan fudgesicles are a perfect summer treat.
