Ingredients

  • 2 avocados ripe, peeled and pitted
  • 1 13.5 oz can coconut cream, full fat
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 2-3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1-2 limes, juice and zest (depending on how lime-y you like it)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Magic Shell Chocolate Topping

  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips or bar chopped
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 10 Popsicle sticks

Instructions

  • In a food processor, puree avocado, coconut cream,protein powder, honey, lime juice, zest and vanilla. Process until well combined, smooth and creamy. Taste test and add more honey or lime if you think it needs it.
    Pour mixture into 8-10 popsicle molds (depending on the size) until almost full. Insert wooden sticks and place in freezer for at least 3 hours, or until the popsicles are solid.
    If you do not have popsicle molds, simply place in a lidded plastic container and serve as ice-cream.

Magic Shell Chocolate Coating

  • Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in small deep jug or mug (so you can dip the popsicles in easily) and microwave at 50% power with 30 second bursts stirring between each one until melted and smooth.
    It usually takes around 1½ minutes to melt the chocolate depending on the microwave.
    Or use double boiler method - (pot of boiling water with a bowl resting on top) melt the chocolate chips and the coconut oil together.
    Remove the popsicles from freezer and unmold them after checking they are firm and set. Dip into the melted chocolate.
    Dip twice if preferred then roll in chopped nuts, toasted coconut, sprinkles or your favourite toppings and/or drizzle with more melted chocolate.
    Enjoy immediately, or store in the freezer until ready to serve.
