Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 2 whole Ripe Avocados Be sure to use ripe, fresh avocados for the best texture.
  • 1 cup Full-Fat Coconut Milk Use the solid part from the can for enhanced creaminess.
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Mint Leaves Always opt for fresh mint for an authentic taste.
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup Acts as a natural sweetener.
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice Prevents avocado browning and adds zest.
Chocolate Shell
  • 1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips Semi-sweet chocolate can also be used.
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil Make sure it's melted before mixing with chocolate chips.
  • 1/2 cup Crispy Puffed Quinoa Feel free to swap with crispy rice cereal.

Equipment

  • Blender
  • popsicle molds
  • Microwave-safe bowl

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a powerful blender, combine ripe avocados, the solid part of a can of full-fat coconut milk, fresh mint leaves, maple syrup, and freshly squeezed lime juice. Blend for about 1-2 minutes until you achieve a smooth and creamy texture.
  2. Carefully pour the avocado mixture into popsicle molds and tap the molds gently to remove any air bubbles. Cover securely and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  3. Melt dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring after each until fully melted and smooth. Fold in the crispy puffed quinoa.
  4. Remove the frozen popsicles from their molds, dip into the melted chocolate shell, and place on a parchment-lined tray to harden.
  5. Transfer the chocolate-coated bars into an airtight container and store in the freezer until ready to serve.
