These are so simple and delicious (even easier than walking all the way to the corner store for a paddle pop…and so much better for you!). Go for your life with the fresh mint, the recipe can handle a lot. Amy Crawford - The Holistic Ingredient
SERVES 5
ingredients
- 1 large banana or 2 small
- 1 cup full fat Greek yoghurt or coconut yoghurt
- ½ cup coconut cream
- 2 tablespoons Cacao Powder
- 1 large handful of mint
- 100g block of Mint and AFA Chocolate
- 2 heaped teaspoons Coconut Oil
method
- Step 1 :Blend all ingredients, except the chooclate and coconut oil, until smooth. Pour into Popsicle makers, pop in the sticks and place in the freezer overnight.
- Step 2 :Once the popsicles are frozen you are ready to get dipping! Prepare a tray lined with baking paper that will fit into your freezer.
- Step 3 :To melt the chocolate, break up the bar into pieces and melt in a bowl with the coconut oil over a saucepan of lightly boiling water. Do not allow any water to hit the chocolate. Once melted I transferred the melted chocolate to a narrow jar that would allow me to quickly dip in the frozen popsicle tip (you could also pour the chocolate over the whole popsicle, knowing that you will have plenty of chocolate to do so).
- Step 4 :To remove the popsicles from the popsicle makers, run luke-warm (or even hot) water over the base for a few seconds to help ease them out. Then dip them very quickly into your chocolate. Once dipped the chocolate should freeze quickly. Place it on the lined tray and back into the freezer..or devour!
