Ingredients

  • 2 cups Whole milk
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 0.33 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt until well combined and no lumps remain.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips. Continue stirring until the chocolate chips are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Allow the mixture to cool slightly for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.

Step 6

Carefully pour the chocolate mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a small amount of space at the top to allow for expansion as the mixture freezes.

Step 7

Insert popsicle sticks into the molds. If your mold doesn’t have built-in slots for sticks, freeze the mixture for 1 hour before inserting the sticks so they stay in place.

Step 8

Freeze the fudgesicles for at least 6 hours or until completely solid.

Step 9

To remove the fudgesicles from the molds, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen them.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy this creamy, chocolatey treat!
