There is excitement in the air, kids are restless and so I am but I’m trying to keep calm and get the necessary things done before we all take off. This is the most exciting part of summer for me – planning and going on a holiday apart from ice creams and frozen treats that we over do during summers. Summer I love you!
This holiday is an extra special one, we group of friends has been planning this holiday for more than 6 months. This holiday will sure been an awesome one I know for sure.
I can’t believe I’m sitting with my lappy and writing this post like early morning today while we are heading to airport by night. I mean not that I left all other work and doing this, we’re almost all packed.
The excitement is too much that I’m unable to sleep. Was tossing and turning all night on the bed, just couldn’t do that anymore so I got out to-do something constructive. While I have been keeping many posts pending I thought I will post this Popsicle recipe before we head off.
A few weeks back I did a community service by taking up baking classes for children in my layout. It was all a super fun filled workshop where we (a group of 20 children including my kids) baked some yummy cookies, baked our own pizza all from scratch and even made some vanilla ice cream. The last day of the workshop was ice cream workshop. I made some extra surprise treats for kids to enjoy while they were waiting for the ice cream to freeze. This recipe is adapted from here
This vegan mint chocolate Popsicle is the simplest Popsicle recipe. And since I was treating the kids I wanted to make it a little colorful so I used edible food color in it. There is also choco bits(or choco chips) in it for that awesome bite. This Popsicle is simple delicious, and coconut creamy with a beautiful aroma of mint in it. One of the best summer treat for all. Try it out and enjoy a cool summer treat.
Come summer we never want to miss on ice creams and Popsicles. Mint and chocolate are those 2 amazing flavors that were meant to be together. The freshness from the mint and pepper mint extract, plus creaminess from coconut cream will make you wonder how could something so simple be so good! While there are millions of chocolate mint recipes out there, this is something unique, fresh and utterly satisfying. If you haven’t introduced yourself to chocolate chip mint desserts, it’s time you do it now. Because once you give it a try, you’ll never go back. With so many variations to this mint chocolate chip recipes you’ll never get bored.
I highly recommend you to use dark chocolate chunks or dark chocolate chips for this (or any) mint chocolate desserts. The flavors and taste balance so well. Not too sweet, just right balanced.
If you don’t have those fancy Popsicle molds, don’t fret! You can set beautiful round shaped Popsicle in disposable paper cups. Aren’t these cuties!
But if you are looking for recommendations of Popsicle molds then you should invest in this *ice pop maker

You see mint-chocolate combination never fails. You can make so many delicious refreshingly addictive desserts using this mint chocolate combination. And to me this vegan Popsicle is one of the best mint chocolate recipe. Why? Because the creaminess from coconut cream and the flavors of fresh mint with addictive glorious chunks of chocolate wins my heart every single time. It’s kind of less guilt-free dessert too. If only you did not add sugar in this Popsicle recipe it would be totally guilt-free.
