5-Ingredient Healthy Fudgesicles
Summer is here and these Healthy Fudgesicles will be your new favorite way to cool down. Made with just 5 simple ingredients – they are creamy, rich and delicious!

As a kid, I always gravitated towards the chocolate desserts: chocolate ice cream cake, chocolate cream pie, drumstick ice cream cones, and fudgesicles. No wonder I had so much energy! Thankfully I didn’t read (or know how to read) the ingredients list on those desserts. Now that summer is here, I crave those nostalgic sweet treats, specifically fudgesicles. So that is how this recipe came about.
Let me tell you, these are truly better than the real thing, in many ways. First, they are much healthier for you, made with just 5 wholesome ingredients. Second, they are super easy to make and a fun activity to do with kids. Last but not least, they taste SO much better. These are rich, creamy and chocolate-y – they aren’t icy or watery at all (which I remember them being as a kid). Plus, they are naturally vegan, gluten free and refined sugar free!
Ingredients – 5-Ingredient Healthy Fudgesicles
• Coconut Cream – the thick part from the top of a can of coconut milk. Put the can of coconut milk in the fridge for about 30 minutes to get it thick. I usually just buy a can of coconut cream from Trader Joes. I promise, as someone who does not like coconut, these do not taste like coconut.
• Plant Milk – any non-dairy milk will work.
• Cocoa Powder – use your favorite cocoa powder for the best chocolate flavor. I usually use Target brand or this one from Amazon.
• Agave – you can also use maple syrup.
• Vanilla Extract
How To Make 5-Ingredient Healthy Fudgesicles
Did I mention they were easy to make? Because they’re genuinely SO easy to make. Add coconut cream, non-dairy milk, cocoa powder, agave, vanilla & a pinch of salt to a blender and blend until smooth. Then pour into popsicle molds and freeze. Use some warm water to slide them out of the molds and enjoy! My family and friends always ask me to make these when we’re sitting poolside on a hot summer day – they are the ultimate, indulgent summer treat.
If you grew up eating fudgesicles, then you definitely need to try this healthier homemade version made with just 5 simple ingredients. They are so rich, creamy and indulgent. I hope you will try this recipe and continue making it for many more summers to come!
