Tutti Fruitti Chocolate Coconut Popsicles

By Pattywak

Making popsicles is super easy and stress free. Use whatever frozen or fresh fruit you have around the house. It is a great way to munch on a few servings of fruit and if you add some yogurt, milk, or cream….you get a little bit of healthy fat and some protein too. You can keep things vegan with coconut, almond or soy milk.

Ingredients

• 4 ounces (1 large) banana
• 4 ounces low fat, unsweetened coconut milk
• Vanilla stevia drops, to taste (or your favorite natural sweetener)
• 1 1/2 to 2 ounces raspberries, frozen
• 1 1/2 to 2 ounces dark chocolate, broken into small pieces

Preparation

Step 1

In your blender, combine banana and coconut milk.

Fill pop molds with mixture, leaving some room at the top for berries and chocolate.

Freeze without the sticks for about 1 hour. Take pops out of freezer and crush ice that has formed with a small fork.

Gently add the raspberries and chocolate pieces. Distribute them throughout the pop molds. Top the popsicles (is really the bottom of the pop) with extra chocolate and berries. Add sticks and cover with foil to keep them in place. Freeze another hour or so until frozen through.
