Creamy, chocolatey, delicious, and surprisingly healthy, these Avocado Fudge Pops are the perfect sweet treat on a hot day.

As a kid, I loved Fudgsicles, especially on a hot summer day. Now a days, I prefer my treats vegan and a bit healthier too. These Avocado Fudge Pops are the perfect replacement for those fudge pops of my past. Every bit as creamy, chocolaty, completely vegan and healthier too.
Looking for more cool summer treats? Be sure to try my Honeydew Melon Pops or Peanut Butter Banana Ice Cream Bites. Both are so delicious and great for hot summer days!
Ingredients
These fudge pops get their creamy base from avocado. Avocados are full of heart healthy fats and several B vitamins, as well as potassium, vitamins C, K, and E making them a healthy addition to your diet. Using them in these fudge pops is an easy way to get all those benefits, if you’re not the biggest avocado fan.

- maple syrup
- cocoa powder
- vanilla

Instructions
Making these pops is so easy. Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Then pour the mixture into your favorite popsicle molds or paper cups with food safe sticks. Place in the freezer for several hours until completely frozen.
Hint: You can add toppings or mix ins and really make these pops you own. My favorite way to eat them is with a magic shell coating. Just melt your favorite vegan chocolate and a couple of teaspoons of coconut oil together and mix well. Drizzle or dip popsicle and watch as the melted chocolate hardens to a delicious chocolate coating. You can also add toppings like cacao nibs, chocolate chips, sprinkles, shredded coconut, or anything else you can dream up. Be sure to sprinkle them on quickly before the chocolate hardens.
Substitutions & Variations
- sugar free - use stevia drops instead of maple syrup to sweeten pops
- flavor - add a few drops of peppermint extract for mint chocolate flavor
Equipment
You will need a blender or food processor to blend the mixture and molds or paper cups and sticks for freezing.
Storage
Store pops in the freezer until ready to serve. Good for up to one month.
Top Tip
When deciding on the sweetest level on these pops keep in mind that freezing will dull the sweetness. You really want the mixture to be on the edge of being too sweet before freezing so that the frozen pops are sweet enough.

- Taste and add additional ¼ maple syrup if desired. Keep in mind that freezing will make foods not taste as sweet so you want the pre-frozen mixture to be a little too sweet.
- Add mix ins, if desired.
- Pour mixture into popsicle molds and gently tap each mold on a hard surface to get out air bubbles.
- Freeze 4-6 hours until solid.
- To remove popsicles from the mold easily, place mold in hot running water for about 20-30 seconds. The mold should easily slide off.
