Prep time
Total time
 
Serves: 5-6
Ingredients
  • 1 container So Delicious Creamy Cashew Cashewmilk Frozen Dessert or Vanilla Ice Cream (vegan) of choice
  • ⅓ cup unsweetened non-dairy milk of choice (almond, cashew, etc.)
  • 1 cup fresh cherries
  • ¼ cup 70% dark chocolate chips or squares
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons raw or roasted cashews, crushed into bits
Instructions
  1. Blend the cashewmilk frozen dessert with the non-dairy milk in a food processor until smooth. This makes a good consistency to add to the popsicle molds.
  2. Take the cherries, remove the stems, then squish one cherry at a time between your fingers and thumb to remove the pit. Add all the pitted cherries to a bowl.
  3. Using a potato masher or similar, mash the cherries slightly to break into smaller pieces.
  4. Take your popsicle mold (you should be able to fill 4-6 individual molds in the tray) and layer the cherry pieces with the frozen creamy cashewmilk mixture.
  5. Insert a popsicle stick in each filled mold.
  6. Place the filled molds in the freezer for at least 5 hours.
  7. When the popsicles are completely frozen you can prepare the chocolate drizzle.
  8. Prepare the chocolate drizzle by melting the chocolate chips with the coconut oil in a pan over low heat, then remove from the heat and set aside for about 20 minutes to cool.
  9. Once the chocolate sauce is somewhat cooled, remove the popsicles from the freezer and let thaw slightly so you are able to easily remove the popsicles from the mold.
  10. Remove the popsicles from the mold and set them on a plate.
  11. Drizzle the melted chocolate over each popsicle, (working quickly so they don't melt!) then sprinkle with cashew bits.
  12. The chocolate will harden right away so the popsicles can be enjoyed immediately, or place the plate with the drizzles popsicles back in the freezer until you are ready to serve.
