My mom makes these and they are the most delicious in the world! This homemade recipe is truly better than any store-bought ones I have ever eaten. I gave them a 4th of July makeover and they are now an amazing treat for your Patriotic celebrations! They are incredibly fudgy and creamy.

Key ingredients

• Vanilla Greek yogurt- This gives it the creamiest texture.
• Milk- The higher fat content, the more creamy the popsicle.
• Cocoa powder- Use high quality for best results.
• Honey- Raw, local honey is optimal.

Variations

• Try other yogurt flavors- It could be as subtle as a honey flavor or you can change the overall flavor with something like strawberry.
• Other sweeteners can be used- Such as liquid Stevia, agave, or natural maple syrup like I do in this Maple Syrup Fudge (With Maple Syrup).
• Try a different type of milk- Such as whole, skim, almond, coconut, or soy depending on your diet and personal preferences. You can even use chocolate milk.
• Use other toppings- Such as shredded coconut, crushed nuts, nerds, mini chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, sprinkles, or chopped up Butterfingers.
• Add-ins- You can put the above topping options in the actual popsicles as well.
• Use more cocoa powder- For a more dark chocolate flavor.
• Drizzle over the top- Various melted chocolate, melted peanut butter, or even Homemade Caramel Sauce. Just be sure to cool before drizzling.

How to make homemade fudgesicles?

1. Mix together- Milk, cocoa powder, honey and yogurt.
2. Pour mixture- Into popsicle molds and freeze.
3. Remove them- From molds and enjoy!

Tips and techniques

• Be sure to use Greek yogurt- Because compared to regular yogurt it is much more rich and cream.
• Don't replace honey with sugar- Because the flavor would change and ratios of other ingredients would need to be adjusted. This is a sugar free recipe.
• Use unsweetened cocoa powder- Or else these chocolate ice pops will become too sweet.
• If you don't have any molds- Use paper cups and popsicle sticks or even make mini ones with ice cube trays.
• Easily get pops out- By running them under warm water.
• Double the batch- So you are always ready for those hot summer days at home.
• Make sure you freeze the popsicles long enough- It should be at least 6 hours for them to fully harden.
• If drizzling melted chocolate- Be sure it is cooled down so as not to melt the treat.

Recipe FAQs

Storage

• Make ahead- These can easily be made ahead and kept in the freezer for a later time.
• Room temperature- These won't last very long at room temperature. It's best to keep them frozen and then eat immediately.
• Refrigerate- Although it is cooler than outside, these pops will still get melty in the fridge, so I don't recommend that.
• Freeze- This is the best place to store them for up to 1 month.
