Ingredients
Scale
For the Ice Cream Pops:
- 2 cups (480 ml) vanilla ice cream, softened
- 1/2 cup (90 g) mini chocolate chips
For the Chocolate Shell:
- 1 cup (200 g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) coconut oil
Optional Toppings:
- Sprinkles
- Crushed nuts
- Shredded coconut
Instructions
- Prepare the Ice Cream Mixture:
- In a large bowl, mix the softened vanilla ice cream with the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Mold the Pops:
- Spoon the mixture into popsicle molds, tapping the molds gently to remove air pockets.
- Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for 4-6 hours, or until fully set.
- Make the Chocolate Shell:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and glossy. Let the mixture cool slightly.
- Dip the Pops:
- Remove the ice cream pops from the molds. Dip each pop into the chocolate shell, letting the excess drip off.
- Immediately sprinkle with your choice of toppings before the chocolate sets.
- Set and Serve:
- Place the dipped pops on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm. Serve immediately or store in the freezer for later.
Notes
- For a flavor twist, use mint chocolate chip or cookie dough ice cream.
- Substitute coconut oil with vegetable oil for the chocolate shell, but coconut oil helps it harden faster.
- Store leftover pops in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
