Vanilla Coconut 'Froz-Fruit' Popsicles
- 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
- 1/2 cup unsweetened flaked coconut
- 2 tablespoons desired liquid sweetener (honey, syrup, coconut nectar, etc.) OR 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 vanilla bean, scraped
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2-6 ounces 80% dark or semisweet chocolate, chopped (you'll need more for dipping, less for drizzle), optional
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil, optional
- Place all ingredients except shredded coconut, chocolate, and coconut oil in a blender and blitz for 25-40 seconds, or until well mixed.
- Add shredded coconut and blend for a few seconds just to incorporate.
- Pour mixture into a prepared popsicle mold. Freeze for about 4 hours.
- If you're interested in doing a chocolate dip or drizzle: Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a double boiler, then remove from the heat. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
- If dipping: Pour the chocolate into a tall heat-proof jar. Un-mold the pops one at a time, dip, let excess chocolate drip off, then place the pops on the baking sheet and return to the freezer for a few minutes. If drizzling: Working quickly, un-mold all the pops and place then on the baking sheet. Drizzle the chocolate on with a spoon, then return to the freezer for a few minutes.
