Mexican Chocolate-Ancho Paletas
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 5-6 ounces mexican chocolate, chopped
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 teaspoon ancho chili powder
- Bring the heavy cream and milk to a low simmer. Add the cinnamon stick and chocolate and stir until melted, about 5 minutes.
- Taste for sweetness. Depending on the variety of chocolate you use it may need a little sugar or none at all. I used Ibarra brand which was plenty sweet for my tastes.
- Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Add the ancho chili powder and mix well.
- Cool to room temperature and pour into molds. Cover the mold tightly with plastic wrap. Cut a small slit in the wrap over each ice pop and insert a cinnamon stick.
- Chill overnight in the freezer. Unmold by running under water briefly then gently sliding the paletas out. Dust each with ancho chili powder on both sides.
