- 2 tablespoons of coconut oil (to assist in thinning the chocolate for dips)
- Popsicle sticks

-
Melt the chocolate In a bowl safe for microwaves add the chocolate chips with coconut oil. Then, in 30 second intervals, you can microwave it. stirring in between to warrant that the chocolate has perfectly melty and silky smooth.
-
Dip the popsicles When they are solidly frozen take the popsicles out of the mold. Dip each one of them into the chocolate that has melted to completely cover. The excess chocolate should be dripped off before returning the pops to a lined tray.
-
Freeze again When all popsicles are coated with chocolate, place them back into the freezer for at least a more 30 minutes, to allow them to make the chocolate set.
-
Serve and enjoy The treats are desirable eaten straight out of the freezer in order to keep the chocolate shell crisp and the ice cream firm.
Notes
To create a more smoky chocolate coating Dip each popsicle in chocolate twice and allow the initial layer to dry before you dip it another time.
To avoid melting in the process of dipping Make sure you work fast and ensure that the chocolate is kept hot (but not warm).
