Ingredients
Popsicles
- 1 Cup Heavy Cream
- 3 Tablespoons Sweetener (such as erythritol or stevia)
- 1 Cup Greek Yogurt
Chocolate Magic Shell
- 1 Cup Sugar-Free Chocolate
- 3 Tablespoons Coconut Oil
Instructions
- Prepare Popsicle Ingredients: Gather all the necessary ingredients: heavy cream, sweetener, and Greek yogurt. If desired, prepare whipped cream and Greek yogurt in advance or follow our recipes for sugar-free chocolate and chocolate magic shell to master the techniques.
- Make Whipped Cream: In a hand blender container, combine the heavy cream and sweetener. Whip them using the hand blender until stiff peaks form, creating a fluffy whipped cream base for the popsicles.
- Combine Yogurt and Whipped Cream: Transfer the whipped cream into a mixing bowl with the Greek yogurt. Whisk gently until the mixture is smooth and fully combined, ensuring an even creamy texture.
- Fill Popsicle Molds: Using a small spoon, carefully fill silicone popsicle molds with the whipped cream and yogurt mixture. Insert popsicle sticks in the center and add a little extra mixture to cover the sticks securely.
- Freeze Popsicles: Place the filled molds in the freezer and allow them to set for at least 3-4 hours, although freezing overnight is recommended for best results to achieve firm popsicles.
- Prepare Chocolate Magic Shell: Set up a double boiler and place the sugar-free chocolate and coconut oil in the top section. Gently melt them together, stirring occasionally until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Dip Popsicles in Magic Shell: Once the popsicles are fully frozen, pour the warm chocolate magic shell into a tall container suitable for dipping. Quickly dip each popsicle into the chocolate coating and allow it to harden.
- Serve or Store: Enjoy the popsicles immediately for a delightful chocolate shell crunch or store them in the freezer for later indulgence.
Notes
- For best results, use silicone molds as they make it easier to remove the popsicles.
- You can substitute the sweetener with your preferred sugar-free alternative suitable for freezing.
- Make sure the chocolate magic shell is warm but not too hot when dipping, to ensure it coats quickly and hardens correctly.
- Storing popsicles overnight in the freezer improves texture and firmness.
- Feel free to customize by adding nuts or flavor extracts to the yogurt mixture before freezing.
