Coconut Chocolate Popsicles

It seems like we are finally having some hot weather (not that I can complain), so it seems the right time to make some Popsicles.   I have a delicious recipe that I have used several times for Fudgesicles and while they are great, they are on the higher fat side as they include whipping cream.  I decided to look on-line for another recipe and found an easy one that uses coconut milk.  This recipe comes from the blog:  The Creekside Cook.  With only five ingredients, this recipe came together very quickly.   

This popsicle tasted like chocolate and toasted coconut.  Delish!

 The five ingredients are:  1 can (13 oz) coconut milk, 1/3 cup dark baking cocoa, 2 Tb. honey (or 4Tb maple syrup), 1 tsp. pure vanilla, and a pinch of kosher salt.  Combine these in a bowl and then pour into popsicle molds.  You can see that I used a whisk first.  Then to make sure I didn't have any cocoa lumps, I quickly used my hand blender.  

 Freeze until firm

I had my husband take a few photos of me with my popsicle and as you can see, he had me laughing!
