Sometimes don’t you wonder, why we we buy treats – full of preservatives, while its so easy to make them at home? Like these Creamy Coconut Popsicles.

These homemade Creamy Coconut Popsicles are probably one of the easiest things I have made and best part is, there is no cooking or baking involved.

Let’s talk Ingredients
You will need just 4 ingredients.
- Coconut Milk
- Condensed Milk
- Coconut Flakes
- Heavy Cream
Tips to make the coconut popsicles
- Adding popsicle sticks: to add wooden popsicle sticks, freeze your popsicles without the sticks for about 1 hour, then add them in. That way they will stand properly in your popsicle.
- I prefer to used canned coconut milk for this recipe because I find it more creamy than a lot of coconut milk. Sometimes I will use coconut milk in tetra packs and it works well too, it’s just not as creamy.
- If you don’t like the texture of the added shredded coconut, feel free to leave it out.
- Alternations -To make a pina colada flavor, add some drained crushed pineapple to the recipe or turn these coconut pops into tropical popsicles by dropping couple of tablespoon of mango pulp into the molds.
These Creamy coconut popsicles are made with just 4 ingredients and no artificial flavors whatsoever! The perfect treat for all year around.
