Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a blender.
- Measure out the coconut milk and maple syrup.
- In the blender, combine the avocado flesh, coconut milk, and maple syrup.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Carefully pour the blended mixture into iceblock molds, leaving a little space at the top of each mold.
- Insert the sticks into the molds.
- Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid.
- Once the iceblocks are fully frozen, melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler.
- Stir in the coconut oil until fully combined and smooth.
- Remove the iceblocks from the molds.
- Dip each iceblock into the melted chocolate, allowing the excess to drip off.
- Place the dipped iceblocks on a parchment-lined tray.
- Return the tray of dipped iceblocks to the freezer for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is set.
- Once the chocolate has hardened, your coconut and avocado iceblocks are ready to enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados: Ensure that the avocados you use are ripe and creamy for the best texture. They should give slightly when pressed.
- Blend ingredients thoroughly: To achieve a smooth mixture, blend the avocado, coconut milk, and maple syrup until completely combined. This ensures a consistent texture throughout the iceblocks.
- Use quality chocolate: Opt for high-quality dark chocolate for the best flavor. It adds a rich, decadent touch to the iceblocks.
- Freeze properly: Allow the iceblocks to freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or overnight, to ensure they are completely set before enjoying.
- Experiment with add-ins: Feel free to add other ingredients such as shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or fruit pieces to the mixture before freezing for added texture and flavor.
