01 / WHAT YOU NEED

Ingredients

1 cup plain yogurt ½ cup coconut milk 3 ½ teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder, or to taste 3 ½ teaspoons brown sugar, or to taste

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by combining the yogurt, coconut milk, cocoa powder, brown sugar, vanilla, and almond extracts in a blender. Blend everything until it’s nice and smooth. Pour this mixture into your popsicle molds, filling each about three-quarters full. Next, top off the molds with cherries, gently pushing them down into the cocoa mixture with a knife so they’re evenly spread out. Pop the molds into the freezer and let them chill until they’re completely frozen, which usually takes at least 8 hours. Once they’re set, they’re ready to enjoy!
