Mint Chocolate Popsicles
Cool and creamy mint chocolate popsicles flecked with dark chocolate and flavored with fresh mint leaves are the perfect frozen treat. Recipe yields 10 popsicles.

Made with full fat coconut milk, cool mint gives these dairy-free pops a refreshing feel. Flecked with shards of semisweet chocolate (use a serrated knife to get the best texture) for plenty of chocolate in each bite, there’s no better way to get your mint-chocolate fix.

5 Secrets to Baking Decadent Chocolate Desserts
Ingredients
- 2 2/3 cups full fat coconut milk
- 3/4 cup packed fresh mint leaves
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/8 tsp salt
- peppermint extract (optional, and to taste)
- food coloring (optional)
- 3 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
Instructions
- Combine coconut milk and fresh mint leaves in a saucepan over medium heat. Heat for 5 minutes, until bubbles appear around the edge of the pan. Remove from heat and let steep 20 minutes. Strain infused coconut milk through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on the mint with the back of a spoon. Whisk in sugar, salt, peppermint extract, and food color (2 drops green, 1 drop blue) until smooth. Let mixture cool to room temperature, then cover and chill for 6 hours in the refrigerator.
- Stir chopped chocolate into mixture and fill popsicle molds, leaving a 1/2-inch of space at the top of each mold. Freeze for about an hour, then insert popsicle sticks and freeze overnight. To unmold, let popsicles stand at room temperature for 5 minutes. Carefully remove from molds and serve.
Notes
I added a few drops of peppermint extract to enhance the mint flavor; taste mixture before adding extract – you may not need it depending on the strength of your mint leaves.

We love these popsicles, definitely a summer favorite for us as well. Thank you Ilene! 🙂
Hi! Your recipe looks amazing! I’d like to know if you’ve had issues with the chocolate shavings suspending throughout the Popsicle or does it all sink to the bottom, like mine did? It may have been that my shavings were to large? Thanks for your input! 🙂
Hi Sophia! Now that you mention it, sometimes the savings do sink to the bottom (I think that happens if the chocolate isn’t quite fine enough). Usually I take a skewer and swirl the mixture around in each mold and that helps distribute the chocolate more evenly…I’ll make a note of that in the recipe :).
