Frozen, Fudgy, and Fabulous: 4 Easy Desserts with Fudgsicle
Beat the heat with these delicious Fudgsicle recipes. Little helpers welcome!
1. Fudgsicle Magic Milkshake
A Fudgsicle milkshake is what we call a next-level dessert drink. And the best part? It’s super easy to make and seriously delicious. Just take one Fudgsicle (remove the stick), add two scoops of vanilla or chocolate ice cream (we love Breyers Homemade Vanilla or Chocolate for extra creaminess), and a splash of milk. Blend until smooth.
You could also add whipped cream, sprinkles or any other toppings you like.
Pro tip: Let your Fudgsicle sit at room temperature for 1–2 minutes before using it in recipes. That way, they blend and mix smoothly without losing their creamy texture.
2. Fudgsicle Dipped in Chocolate and Nuts
Fudgsicle pops are already amazing, but what if you could supercharge their flavor with more chocolate and a crunchy coating? Melt 1 cup of chopped dark chocolate with 2 tablespoons of refined coconut oil and 2 tablespoons of corn syrup. Let it cool slightly, then dip your Fudgsicle pops into the mix and sprinkle with crushed nuts or cookies. Place them on a tray and pop them in the freezer until the shell hardens. Then enjoy your brand-new treat anytime!
3. Fudgsicle Frozen Hot Chocolate
What do you do when it’s blazing hot outside but you’re craving the cozy taste of hot chocolate? You turn it into a frozen dessert, of course! Melt one Fudgsicle with your favorite milk and a packet of hot chocolate mix (you can do this in the microwave or on the stovetop). Once smooth, blend it with a cup of ice until it’s frothy and cold. That’s it: a frozen hot chocolate that’s fudgy and fantastic!
4. Fudgsicle Layered Parfait
This Fudgsicle recipe is perfect for when you want something that looks fancy but takes almost no effort. Just soften a couple of Fudgsicles (sticks off!), chop them up, and start layering in a glass with brownie chunks, crushed cookies, and big spoonfuls of whipped cream.
Keep stacking those creamy, chewy layers until your glass is full of fudgy goodness.
