Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, heavy cream, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk continuously until the mixture is well blended and the sugar is completely dissolved, about 3-5 minutes. Do not let the mixture come to a boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Continue stirring until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
Let the mixture cool slightly, then pour it into popsicle molds, leaving a small gap at the top to allow for expansion.
Insert the popsicle sticks into the molds.
Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the popsicles are solid.
To release the popsicles, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds, then gently pull the popsicles out.
Serve immediately or wrap individually in plastic wrap for storage in the freezer.
