Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 4 magnums
Ingredients
- 1 cup raspberries
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate, melted
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by washing the raspberries and measuring out all components precisely.
- In a blender, combine raspberries, coconut milk, cocoa powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and completely integrated, creating a vibrant raspberry-chocolate mixture.
- Pour the blended mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a small space at the top for expansion during freezing. Insert popsicle sticks carefully in the center of each mold.
- Place the filled molds in the freezer and allow to freeze completely, which typically takes about 4-5 hours or overnight for best results.
- Once frozen, carefully remove the popsicles from the molds by running warm water briefly over the exterior.
- Melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or microwave, stirring until smooth and glossy.
- Quickly dip each frozen raspberry popsicle into the melted dark chocolate, ensuring complete coverage. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
- Return the chocolate-coated popsicles to the freezer for 5-10 minutes to set the chocolate shell.
- Serve immediately or store in a sealed container in the freezer for up to one week.
Tips
- Use ripe, fresh raspberries for the most intense flavor and vibrant color.
- For a smoother texture, strain the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve before freezing to remove seeds.
- Ensure your chocolate is at the right temperature when dipping - not too hot, which can melt the popsicle, and not too cool, which will create a thick coating.
- Use high-quality dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa for a rich, intense flavor.
- For an extra touch of elegance, sprinkle some crushed nuts or coconut flakes on the chocolate shell before it sets.
- If you don't have popsicle molds, small paper cups can work as an alternative.
- Allow the popsicles to sit at room temperature for 1-2 minutes before serving for the perfect texture.
