Yum Alert: Frozen Chocolate Kiwi Pops

Written by Ashley

A fantastic snack for pregnant gals & college kiddies alike, this dessert is healthy without sacrificing ANY of the yum.

These are something that make me sit here at my computer, dumbfounded by the lack of serious concentration one would need to create these magical pops on a stick, and think… ‘why didn’t I think of this?!?!’ while my mouth waters all over my keyboard at the thought of running home tonight to try it. Roommates, you’re welcome in advance.

Directions:

  1. Kiwi – peeled and cut in 1 inch thick rounds, with a popsicle stick in each round. Freeze on a tray in the freezer.
  2. 1 cup Chopped dark chocolate and 1/2 cup Coconut oil – melted over a double boiler, then cooled to room temp
  3. Dip each Kiwi-pop into the chocolate mixture (it will immediately turn crispy) and place on a tray to refreeze or pass around right now.

Recipe founder, Cathy, also states that a serving of kiwi has enough fiber to replace an entire bowl of cereal, enough potassium to replace a banana & enough vitamin C, E & folate (hey to your pregnant ladies out there!) to make any human feel their healthiest. Covering it in chocolate doesn’t seem so bad now, ay?
