Keto Fudgy Cocoa Popsicles

Adults and kids will love this recipe, but it’s definitely a fun group activity! Make this Keto cocoa powder recipe when you want a dessert that’s low in sugar but is still fudgy, creamy, and cool to the taste. The popsicles are almost like a frozen pudding pop but Keto! Imagine getting to take the icing right off the top of a cupcake and freezing it on a stick as a delicious go-to snack. That’s the type of treat you’ll be making right here. Only natural cocoa powder flavors the popsicles, but you can read further below to learn how to add even more chocolate into them.

Where can I find popsicle sticks?

Look for popsicle sticks at craft stores or in baking aisles at grocery stores. If you can’t find them, look for wooden candy apple sticks, which will also be sold at grocery stores. Since these Keto popsicles are so lightweight, you can make them on straws as well. Make sure that whatever items you’re making the popsicles on contain safe edges that won’t harm anyone eating them.

Make the popsicles extra fudgy

For an extra chocolate flavor, make a ganache to blend into the popsicle mix. Make a 2:1 mixture of dark chocolate chips to heavy cream by weight. Heat the ingredients together, then fold them into your popsicle recipe at the end of Step 1. Make sure the ganache has cooled somewhat before you fold the whipped cream into it.

Cream Heavy Whipping

0.5 cup
Butter, unsalted

2 tbsp
Cream cheese

4 oz
Cocoa powder

2 tbsp
Liquid stevia

15 Drop
Vanilla extract

0.25 tsp

Step 1

Start by whipping cold heavy cream in a clean stand mixer until you have firm peaks. Transfer the whipped cream to a separate bowl, and keep it stored in your refrigerator until Step 2. Quickly wipe your stand mixer bowl clean, and add softened butter to it. Use a paddle attachment to blend the butter at medium speed until it’s creamy. Then, blend room temperature cream cheese into the butter until you have a smooth and lump-free mixture. Next, blend the cocoa powder into the mixture to complete the smooth texture.
Step 2

Blend liquid stevia and vanilla extract into the mixing bowl. Then, use a regular spatula to fold the cold whipped cream by hand into the bowl. Once the mixture is folded into a creamy chocolate pudding consistency, set it aside while you prepare the other tools you need to make the popsicles. Fill either a pastry bag with a round tip attached with the chocolate popsicle mixture or a simple Ziploc bag with a small corner cut off.
Step 3

Choose the popsicle sticks you’ll be using, and line them up with space between them on a tray lined with parchment paper. First, squeeze the popsicle mixture from left to right in a short zigzag pattern from the top of each stick to about ¾ of the way down to create a sturdy popsicle base. From there, you can create different shapes and designs, as long as they adhere to the base you made. Freeze the popsicles for 30 minutes before eating.
