Dairy Free Avocado Fudgesicles

Avocado is the secret ingredient in these creamy dairy free avocado fudgesicles. Sounds nuts, but it adds a creamy texture and healthy fats. Honey adds just the right amount of sweetness!

Y'all know I love some avocado! So of course my crazy self figured out a way to work it into dessert!

It may sound gross, but avocado has a mild flavor and creamy texture that lends itself to dessert recipes. It adds creamy mouthfeel without a strong or overpowering flavor. Just check out my avocado pinterest board for savory and sweet inspiration!

These dairy free avocado fudgesicles are made with just a few ingredients - avocado, coconut milk, cocoa powder, and honey with a pinch of salt and vanilla for flavor. Feel free to increase or decrease the honey based on your desired level of sweetness.

Another bonus of using avocado to make these dairy free fudgesicles - because they're made with avocado and coconut milk, they won't melt all over your hand as you’re eating them!

After freezing these dairy free avocado fudgesicles, I like to garnish them with melted chocolate, chopped nuts, and toasted coconut. After you’ve garnished them, freeze them for a couple minutes to make the chocolate solid, then serve. Or, if you’re going to hold off on serving them, wrap them up with plastic wrap before putting them back in the freezer.

Makes about 6, depending on the size of your popsicle mold

Ingredients:

2 large ripe avocados
2/3 cup dark cocoa powder
1/3 cup honey + 2 tablespoons
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup coconut milk
Pinch of sea salt
Shredded coconut, chopped nuts, and melted dark chocolate, optional, for serving

Instructions:

Blend avocado, cocoa powder, honey, vanilla, coconut milk and sea salt together in a food processor until smooth, scraping down sides as needed. Scoop into popsicle molds, cover and freeze for at least 5 hours until solid.
Before serving, run popsicle mold under hot water to loosen from mold. If desired, drizzle with melted dark chocolate and sprinkle with coconut or nuts. Freeze for a minute or two to solidify the chocolate before serving.
