I seem to make boozy ice cream whenever I make an ice cream recipe. These Paleo Vegan Fudge Pops are, surprisingly, not alcoholic. I didn't realize I was such an Ice Cream Lush, hah! Reminds me of that line in GrownUps when the little girl says "I WANT TO GET CHOCOLATE WASTED!" I don't want to get chocolate wasted, but maybe just chocolate buzzed? Buzzed sounds good.
Anyway. This was my attempt at a "paleo" recipe, since when I want to attempt to be on a diet that's the one I go to. Since it's a "treat" it doesn't reeeeally count, but at least it's a slightly less guilty treat, right?
Bonus points: IT IS DAIRY FREE.
Coconut Cream Fudge Bars
- 1 can coconut milk, cream separated (upside down in the fridge over night, cream scooped off)
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 3 heaping tablespoons agave nectar or honey
-In a stand mixer, whip the coconut cream until fluffy. Fold in the cocoa powder and agave. Add about 2 tablespoons of the coconut water (leftover from the can). If you want softer pops, less coconut water. More firm, more water.
-Adjust cocoa and agave until desired taste is reached. Side note: at this point it's a LOVELY chocolate mousse.
-Fill popsicle wells and leave about one finger width headspace. Freeze until firm, preferably overnight.
-Note: the pops will be soft, so remove gently from wells once frozen.
