Homemade Fudge Pops

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!

Freeze Time 4

Total Time 4 10

Servings 2 oz. popsicles

Ingredients

⅔ cup pure maple syrup
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder I prefer the "special dark" variety
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup plain yogurt plus an extra 1 tablespoon
1 ¼ cups milk

Instructions

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!
