Is it just me, or is it the tell-tale sign of summer when you hear the Ice Cream truck\u2019s song in the distance? It was a tradition in my family that we\u2019d start saving our allowance money in the spring to save up for all of our summer ice cream truck needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For my brother, it was the ChocoTacos that got him sprinting out of the house to flag down the ice cream truck driver. For me, it was a creamy, delicious Fudgesicle. There\u2019s nothing better than that chocolatey popsicle\u2026 totally worth emptying my piggy bank on the regular!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now that I\u2019m older, it\u2019s not quite as adorable when I go chasing the ice cream truck down the street. (Kids get to have all the fun.<\/em>) So, I decided that one of my summertime goals was to learn how to make homemade fudgesicles. I am SO excited to say that I have totally mastered this fudgesicle recipe and I\u2019m ready to share it with all of you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n These fudgesicles are so good you\u2019re probably going to put your local ice cream truck out of business. Maybe I\u2019ll even start my own fudgesicle stand at my house. Seems genius to me. Make the kids walk to ME to pay for their ice cream rather than drive around looking for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Decadence Coco Powder \u2013 <\/strong>your fudgesicles will get plenty of sweetness from brown sugar, so you want to make sure you get the 100% cacao . I\u2019m a loyal Decadence fan (not sponsored, just love<\/em> baking with it!), but I\u2019m sure another brand would work just as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cornstarch \u2013 <\/strong>without some cornstarch, your popsicles would be too liquidy and not the consistency of a true, classic fudgesicle. By mixing in 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, your homemade fudgesicles will have the same chocolatey flavor AND texture as the real thing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Milk \u2013<\/strong> after some trial and error recipe making, I\u2019ve found that the ideal milk to use for this fudgesicles recipe is 2% milk. It gives great flavor and also helps to thicken up the popsicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When I\u2019m making homemade fudgesicles, I either make them the night before I want to serve them or first<\/em> thing in the morning. While they only take about 10 minutes to prep, these fudgesicles do take at least 6 hours to set in the freezer, so just keep that in mind when you start making them!
