Ingredients and substitutions:
- Avocados - The flesh from ripe avocados are used to make this chocolate treat so rich and creamy. Be sure the avocados you have are ripe and not too hard or they won't work for this recipe.
- Cocoa power or cacao powder - Either of these can be used to give these fudgesicles their dark chocolate flavour.
- Maple syrup - maple syrup is used to sweeten these avocado fudgesicles and keeps this dessert refined sugar free. Instead of maple syrup you could also use honey.
- Coconut milk - this is used to help blend all the ingredients together so they get super smooth and creamy. I recommend using full fat coconut milk and not low fat coconut milk as it is too watery. Instead of coconut milk you could use another type of milk such as cashew milk or almond milk too.
- Vanilla extract - to help enhance the chocolate flavour of these chocolate avocado fudgesicles.
Recipe variations and add ins:
- Feel free to drizzle a little melted chocolate on these avocado fudgesicles before enjoying them to give them even more chocolate flavour and make them look even more decadent.
- You could add some chocolate chips to turn them into double chocolate popsicles!
How to make avocado fudgesicles:
Step 1

Step 2
Blend everything well until you have a smooth liquid and then transfer the liquid to your popsicle mold and add the popsicle sticks.
Step 3
Cover the mold and place it in the freezer for 6 hours, or overnight. When you are ready to eat the fudgesicles, remove them from the mold and enjoy!
Top tips:
- Be sure to use ripe avocados so that the flesh is nice and soft. Unripe avocados won't work.
- If you don't have a high speed blender you could use a food processor to blend the ingredients instead.
- If you use a plastic popsicle mold run it under hot water for a few seconds after you take it out of the freezer to make the fudgesicles easier to remove from the mold.
- These popsicles are best served shortly after they have been taken out of the freezer. If you let them sit for too long they will start to melt.
How to store:
Store these avocado fudgesicles in the freezer for up to 3 months. You can store them in the popsicle mold.
