Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole milk
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.33 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 0.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, sugar, cocoa powder, and cornstarch until smooth and no lumps remain.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and continue to stir until it thickens, about 8-10 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips until completely melted and smooth.
Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
Allow the mixture to cool slightly at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes.
Carefully pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a small gap at the top to allow for expansion during freezing.
Insert popsicle sticks into the molds and transfer them to the freezer.
Freeze for at least 6 hours or until the fudge pops are completely solid.
To release the pops, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen them. Gently pull to remove the fudge pops.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
