Chocolate, Coffee and Vanilla Popsicles

When I told you I had a long list of popsicle ideas I was going to work on I wasn’t exaggerating even a little bit. It’s what summers are for.

These Chocolate, Coffee and Vanilla Popsicles are incredibly creamy, as creamy as any store-bought popsicle you can find, but made at home, where you can enjoy it any time you want. They are also very easy and quick to make.

If you have the time, you can combine all three in one popsicle like the one above, or you can make them separate, in smaller sizes so you can try all three.

It’s up to you.

For kids I suggest that you use decaf coffee, caffeinated kids are not conducive to a peaceful home, but for adults the coffee one is the perfect way to get our caffeine fix without breaking a sweat in the heat of summer.

Buen provecho!

Notes & Nutrition Facts

A word of advice: Use molds with smooth sides, these popsicles were a bit harder to remove from the molds when I used the ridged molds (in the first picture).
