Ingredients
For the Chocobar Filling
1 cup cashews (140 g), soaked in water for 10 minutes
2–3 ripe bananas (approx. 220 g)
¼ cup peanut butter
¼ cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 ¼ cups coconut milk (300 ml)
For Chocolate Coating
1 cup roughly chopped milk or dark chocolate (approx. 150 g)
2 tablespoons coconut oil (30 ml)
2 tablespoons finely chopped almonds (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the chocobar filling: Blend soaked cashews, bananas, peanut butter, honey, vanilla, and coconut milk until smooth. Pour into popsicle molds, insert sticks, and freeze 8–10 hours until set.
- Prepare the chocolate coating:
- Microwave method: Heat chocolate and coconut oil for 2–3 minutes, stirring every minute until melted.
- Double boiler method: Melt chocolate and coconut oil over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Mix in almonds if desired.
- Coat the chocobars: Dip frozen chocobars briefly in cold water to loosen, then immediately dip in melted chocolate, fully covering each bar. Freeze again until serving. Repeat for all bars.
Notes
- Swap peanut butter for almond or cashew butter.
- Use dark chocolate for a richer flavor.
- Add sea salt to chocolate for a salted variation.
- Mix in shredded coconut, cacao nibs, or freeze-dried berries.
