Fun and with no preservatives :-)
Ingredients:
- 8 oz. bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup milk
- 2 Tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
You will need popsicle molds or 6 each 3 oz. paper cups and
6 popsicle sticks (which you can purchase at any craft store including fancy cut ones).
Directions:
Place chopped chocolate into a medium glass mixing bowl. Set aside.
Combine cream, milk, and cocoa powder in a medium saucepan over medium heat and whisk constantly until cocoa is dissolved and mixture comes to a simmer. Remove from the heat and pour over the chocolate.
Let stand for 2 to 3 minutes and then whisk gently until all chocolate is melted and then whisk in the vanilla extract.
Divide mixture evenly in the molds and place in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours.
If you are using cups and sticks instead of molds, place sticks in center of cups after about and hour and a half of placing the cups in freezer so the sticks will remain centered.
