Chocolate Mint Avocado Popsicles

My granddaughter, Charlie and I decided to suffer the trial process and test these for you :). Well, it gets a big thumbs up from us!

Chocolate Mint Avocado Popcicles
Ingredients:
2 ripe avocados
1/2 cup milk* (we used Almond Milk)
1/4 cup maple syrup or honey (we used maple)
1 Tablespoon of coconut oil
1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract (a little less is good)
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips*



Method:
1. Add all of your ingredients except for your chocolate chips into a high-powered blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
2. Stir in your chocolate chips and pour into popsicle moulds or ice cube trays. I added the chips to the blender for a few seconds to make smaller chunks of chocolate.
3. Place mould in the freezer to set. This should take around 4-5 hours. Once frozen, remove your mould from the freezer, and carefully remove popsicles from the mould and enjoy! We put them in silicone ice cube trays for a smaller portion. They come out really easy.

*For dairy free switch milk for unsweetened Almond Milk and chocolate chips for dairy free variety. Cacao nibs would also be good, adds extra antioxidants!

Putting the mix into small paper cups, adding a stick, and after freezing tear away the paper is a excellent way to make small servings for your little ones.
