What’s Inside: Healthy homemade fudgsicles that won’t break your diet and you can feel good about serving the kids too! Only 3 ingredients!
Healthy Homemade Fudgsicles
Fudgsicles are synonymous with summer, but since they have quite a bit of sugar, they’re not something we eat every day.
However, it’s actually super easy to make your own “good for you” version of the classic fudgsicle recipe!
Why our healthy fudgesicles rock:
- Greek yogurt provides protein and calcium
- Maple syrup has a low glycemic index compared to other sweeteners
You don’t need anything fancy to make our healthy fudgsicles – just three simple, real-food ingredients. (You might already have them on hand at home!)
Greek yogurt is one of our favorite ways to add richness to a recipe, as well a goodies like protein and calcium. We also love maple syrup as a sweetener in our desserts when possible because it doesn’t cause the “sugar spike” like white sugar. It’s low glycemic and often used in paleo treats.
So whether you’re looking for a chocolate fix that won’t bust your diet, or a healthy treat that the kids will love (or both!) – you’ve come to the right place!

Place all ingredients in blender and puree until well combined and smooth.
Taste and adjust the sweetness to your personal preference (if you like sweeter fudgesicles, you may want to add a touch more maple syrup).
Divide the mixture amongst 6 popsicle molds and freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
To remove from molds, run the bottom of the popsicle mold under warm water for a few seconds. This should loosen up the fudgesicles just enough that you can wiggle them right out!
Enjoy immediately.
