This Nutella popsicle recipe is an adult treat perfect for cooling down (or revving up) with this summer. Created by Karrie at the food blog Tasty Ever After, the homemade Nutella Espresso Rum Popsicles are extremely easy to make as well, as they are made with only four ingredients.
The alcoholic ice pops were created as part of popsicle week, but you can enjoy yours at home all season long. You can make your own energizing spiked Nutella popsicle batch with yummy ingredients such as ripe bananas, full fat coconut milk, espresso rum liqueur (Karrie used Grind Espresso liqueur, but kahlua would also work) and Nutella, or your preferred chocolate hazelnut spread.
The result is a refreshing grown-up dessert that combines booze, coffee and chocolate.
