Serves 12 people
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup whipping cream**
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol
- 3.5 oz high % cacao (85% or higher) chocolate, finely chopped
- 18 oz Greek yogurt
- 25 drops stevia extract
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
Directions
-
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine whipping cream, cocoa powder and powdered erythritol, whisking until smooth. Heat through but do not bring to a simmer. Add chopped chocolate and allow to sit 2 minutes, until melted, then whisk until smooth.
-
**Depending on the chocolate you use, it may seize when added to the hot cream. All you need to do is increase the heat a bit, and add more cream, one tablespoon at a time, whisking vigorously until it smooths out.
-
In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, stevia and vanilla extracts. Stir in chocolate mixture until well combined. Spoon or pipe into popsicle molds, add sticks and freeze until solid, at least 2 hours.
-
Alternatively, you can refrigerate the mixture for an hour or two and then churn it in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s directions.
