Why You’ll Love This Fudgesicle Recipe

These chocolatey fudgesicles are the easiest, healthiest frozen dessert and they only use two ingredients. Coconut milk 🥥 provides a creamy , luscious base and it also lends lots of healthy fats (not to mention, rich in iron and vitamin c), while chocolate 🍫 protein powder brings the sugar-free sweet flavor. We’re leveling up with the adult version of a childhood favorite. All the same frozen, chocolate delight of the fudgesicles of our youth, without the sugar crash!

How to Prepare

🥥 First, add the coconut milk and protein powder to a blender and blend until fully combined, about 1 minute.

🫗 Next, pour the mixture into popsicle molds . Add the tops (sticks) onto each mold.

🧊 Then, freeze the fudgesicles overnight.

🍭 To remove the popsicle out of the mold, run the side under some hot water until it loosens up. I like to gently press it up from the bottom.

😋 Finally, enjoy !

  1. My favorite protein powder is by FlavCity. You can find my discount code (and others) here . Please note that different brands and flavors of protein powder will effect the taste and texture.
  2. Want to add even more protein? 🦾 You can blend some cottage cheese into the mixture or use blended cottage cheese in place of coconut milk.
  3. For a fully vegan dessert, use a vegan protein powder. 🪴
  4. There are so many ways to garnish these: toasted shredded coconut 🥥, grated dark chocolate 🍫, or a dusting of cocoa powder.
  5. Dip these into a magic shell 🪄, re-freeze, and enjoy a chocolate-covered fugesicle.

Common Questions

My favorite protein powder is by FlavCity . I like the chocolate peanut butter flavor. You can use code MODERNNONNA for 15% off your order. Different brands and flavors of protein powder will effect the taste and texture.

Certainly you can make these vegan by using a vegan protein powder.

After the fudgesicles have fully frozen in the freezer (at least 12 hours), remove them from the popsicle mold, lay them on a parchment paper-lined tray, let them defrost for just 1 to 5 minutes, or until some condensation appears, then garnish (sprinkle with coconut flakes, dust with cocoa powder, drizzle with melted chocolate, or grate some dark chocolate on top), and then transfer back to the freezer for at least 15 minutes before enjoying.

These will last in popsicle molds for about 3 weeks or until ice crystals form.

Of course! You can use any flavor of protein powder, but remember that if you don’t use chocolate, it’s no longer a fudgesicle.
