Café Latte Coconut Popsicles
These Café Latte-flavored coconut popsicles are drizzled in a decadent chocolate topping that hardens in the freezer, but melts in your mouth. A sprinkling of shaved coconut and orange zest adds wow-factor and makes them taste like a gourmet ice cream treat. Not bad for a vegan Shakeology snack that has 9 grams of protein per serving!
Ingredients :
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 scoops Café Latte Vegan Shakeology
- ½ large banana
- Popsicle sticks
- Parchment paper
- ⅓ cup semi-sweet (or dark) chocolate chips, no dairy added (approx. 2½ oz.)
- 2 tsp. extra-virgin organic coconut oil
- ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 Tbsp. finely grated orange (or lemon) peel (orange zest) (optional)
Instructions
Preparation :
Place milk, Shakeology, and banana in blender; cover. Blend until smooth.
Pour evenly into four ice pop molds; insert a popsicle stick into each pop. Freeze for 3 hours, or until hard.
Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Place chocolate chips and oil in microwave-safe container. Microwave on 50% power for 30 seconds; stir. Microwave for an additional 30 to 45 seconds, or until just melted. Do not overcook. Place in small re-sealable plastic bag. Squeeze out most of the air; seal top. Set aside.
Place frozen pops on prepared baking sheet.
Cut off a tiny corner of plastic bag containing chocolate. Evenly pipe chocolate over pops
Sprinkle evenly with coconut and orange peel (if desired).
Freeze for 15 minutes.
