Healthy Avocado Fudgesicles (Dairy Free/ Refined Sugar Free/ Paleo/ Vegan)

 

Healthy Avocado Fudgesicles

What says summer more than a Fudgesicle? I remember hearing the bells of the Dicki Dee (ice cream) bikes going down the street. You would beg for some money to run after them and get a wonderful ice cream treat to enjoy! A fudgesicle was the ultimate in chocolatey, creamy goodness! Having moved into the healthier, allergy friendly aspect of eating, some think that all the great things from our childhood are gone. Absolutely not! You can make the most delicious, Healthy Avocado Fudgesicles that have all the creamy, chocolate flavour of yesteryear, while also benefiting from the healthy fats. You can enjoy the deliciousness, without sacrificing your diet.

Healthy-Avocado Fudgesicles

Healthy Avocado Fudgesicles (Paleo/ Dairy Free/ Refined Sugar Free/ Vegan)

3 ripe avocados
1/2 c. raw cacao or cocoa
1/2 c. maple syrup (honey for non-vegan)
3/4 c. coconut milk (or desired milk)
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. Himalayan sea salt (optional)

Cut your avocados in half, remove the pit and put the flesh into the food processor; discard the pit and skin.
Put the rest of the ingredients into the food processor and run until smooth. Divide mixture between your popsicle molds. Freeze until firm and enjoy!

  1. These look great, and I happen to have several ripe avocados I need to use before they go bad. Wondering though, I have Florida avocados which are much larger than the Haas. Which type did you use? Do you have a rough idea on the volume?

    1. I used Haas that were each about the size of a tennis ball. Sorry, I didn’t think about measuring them.

      1. I used one large avocado which yielded 2 cups of avocado, 1/4 cup honey, 3 Tbsp. dark cocoa, 1/2 cup almond milk, pinch of salt. But then I made ice cream instead of fudgesicles. Made a nice cream chocolatey ice cream

  2. Hello Sandi! I found your blog through the Mix-it-up-Monday link party. 🙂

    I’ve been wanted to make avocado-cicles for a while now… but I don’t have room in my itty bitty freezer. Your recipe looks incredibly easy, so maybe I should just make everything and run it over to my mom’s place… I’m sure she wouldn’t mind partaking in these delicious little treats.

    1. Thanks Ashley! You may need to be careful. Your mom might just eat them on you 😉

  3. Love this recipe sounds great for kids & adults both. Have pinned & twitted it. Thanks for sharing on Real Food Fridays Blog hop.

  4. I am definitely making these! I once had an avocado smoothie that I have never forgotten, it was so good. Add chocolate – sounds even better! I’m glad I found this at Motivational Monday today!

  5. Yum-these look wonderful! Avocado is such a versatile food, and with recipes like these they really shine. Enjoy the rest of your summer Sandi!

    1. Thanks Carol! We have a couple more camping trips. I hope you and Tom enjoy the rest of your summer as well!

  9. Great recipe, really healthy and great for children. If you can’t get raw cacao what could I use? #TastyTuesday
