Notes
Use unsweetened cocoa powder for the richest chocolate flavor.Greek yogurt helps create a creamy texture and adds protein.For dairy-free fudgesicles, use plant-based yogurt and almond, oat, or coconut milk.Blending the mixture instead of whisking can make the texture even smoother.Allow popsicles to sit at room temperature for 1–2 minutes before eating for the best texture.
