Who doesn’t love a frozen fudge pop? I was a BIG fan of them when I was younger so I worried that a knock-off “real food” version wouldn’t taste as good as what I remembered…but, oh was I wrong! And in case we need any proof my 8-year-old actually told me I was “acting like a kid” while we were eating them together for the first time. Oops – I must have gotten a little messy and proclaimed how good it was one too many times. :)
Sponsor Shoutout: Molly’s Suds
If you are looking to “clean up” other areas of your home the laundry room is a great place to start. Just last year our family started working on that switch and went from conventional laundry detergent to what we thought was “clean” laundry detergent to what (we now know) is really “clean” laundry powder. And yes, they are a sponsor, but I’ve tried quite a few different detergents and Molly’s Suds is honestly my favorite. The reason they won me over is because the safety of the product is unquestionable, the natural smell (peppermint) is divine, and the cleanliness is spot on! I definitely recommend trying them out (be sure to use coupon code 100DAYS15 and save 15%) at least once so you can see for yourself.
- ⅔ cup pure maple syrup
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa (I prefer the "special dark" variety)
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup + 1 tablespoon plain yogurt
- 1¼ cups milk
- Special Tools: Popsicle mold and popsicle sticks
- In a medium sized bowl whisk together the syrup, cocoa powder, and vanilla until thoroughly combined and there are almost no clumps left. Slowly whisk in both the yogurt and milk.
- Pour into the popsicle molds, add a popsicle stick, and freeze. When you are ready to dig in, run a little bit of warm water on the outside of the molds to loosen them up so the popsicles come out easily. Enjoy!

My daughter has a dairy allergy…do you think the coconut milk yogurt would make a noticeable difference? And do you suggest Greek style or regular style yogurt? Thank you!

Hi there. I’ve made these with regular coconut milk yogurt and they turned out well.
