Main Ingredients: The Stars of the Show

Here's your shopping list, all measured out nice and neat. Remember, good ingredients mean good eats!

Coconut Milk: One 13.5 oz (400 ml) can of full-fat coconut milk. Seriously, go for the full-fat stuff. It makes all the difference! Look for coconut milk that is thick and creamy, not watery.
Pineapple Juice: 1/2 cup (120 ml) . Freshly squeezed is boss, but the stuff from the carton works too.
Sugar: 1/4 cup (60 ml) granulated sugar. Or honey. Or agave. Whatever tickles your fancy!
Salt: 1/4 teaspoon (1.5ml) . Tiny bit, big difference.
Diced Pineapple: 1 cup (150g) of lovely, juicy, diced fresh pineapple. The riper, the better! Make sure the pineapple is fragrant and slightly soft to the touch, but not mushy.
Dark Chocolate: 6 oz (170g) of decent quality dark chocolate (at least 70% cacao). Don't skimp! The higher the cocoa, the richer the flavour.
Coconut Oil: 1 tablespoon (15ml) . This helps the chocolate melt nice and smooth, honest!
Shredded Coconut: 1/4 cup (25g) of shredded unsweetened coconut, toasted. Toasting brings out that lovely nutty flavour!

These healthy dessert recipes are also easily converted to Vegan Chocolate Pineapple Pops . Just make sure you use vegan chocolate for dipping.

Seasoning Notes: Flavor Boosters

These pops are already pretty flavourful, but a few tweaks can take them to the next level. This is your chance to create a Dark Chocolate Coconut Pineapple Dessert to remember!

Spice it up: A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg in the coconut milk base. Trust me, it works.
Zesty twist: A little lime zest brightens things right up!

Equipment Needed: Keep it Simple

You don't need fancy kit. Just the basics.

Blender : To get that coconut base super smooth.
Popsicle molds : Obvs!
Saucepan or microwave-safe bowl: For melting the chocolate.
Popsicle sticks: Can't have pops without sticks!
Baking sheet & parchment: To harden the chocolate on.
Small bowl : For easy dipping.

Honestly? You can probably get away with using a mug instead of a bowl for melting the chocolate, and a baking tray instead of a baking sheet.

Prep Steps: Get Your Ducks in a Row

Before we dive in, let's get our mise en place sorted. Chop your pineapple into small, even pieces. Grab your coconut milk and juice.

For extra flavour and crunch, lightly toast your shredded coconut in a pan. Keep a close eye. It burns easily! Oh, and most importantly, get those popsicle moulds ready.

Safety Reminder: When melting the dark chocolate , be patient and use a low heat. Burnt chocolate is nobody's friend!

From Fridge to Fab: The Process

Okay, here's how we make these beauties:

Blend the coconut milk, pineapple juice, sugar, and salt until super smooth.
Gently stir in the diced pineapple. No need to pulverize it.
Optional: Chill the mixture for 30 minutes . This helps prevent the pineapple from sinking.
Pour the mixture into your popsicle moulds, leaving a little space at the top.
Insert the popsicle sticks.
Freeze for at least 4- 6 hours , until solid.
Melt the dark chocolate with coconut oil until smooth.
Dip each popsicle in the melted chocolate and immediately sprinkle with toasted coconut.
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 5- 10 minutes to harden the chocolate.

Pro Tips for Popsicle Perfection

Don't overfill the moulds. Popsicles expand when freezing, you know?
To easily unmold, run the moulds under warm water for a few seconds. Don't keep em in for too long!.
If you want extra fancy, you can temper the chocolate! It will be shinier and snap better.

Want to make these ahead? Make the popsicles, wrap them individually in cling film, and store them in the freezer.

You can dip them in chocolate just before serving. These are a great Healthy Dessert or a Tropical Popsicle Recipe .

They could be a Vegan Chocolate Pineapple Pops by using vegan chocolate.

Recipe Notes for Your Tropical Treat!

Think of these as my "secrets" to getting it just right , based on my own kitchen escapades (and the occasional popsicle disaster!).

Serving these Delicious Pops

Fancy fruit recipes that look the part? Plating these Chocolate Coconut beauties is a doddle. A simple stand is fine.

Get a bit of melted white chocolate. Drizzle this over the Pineapple Chocolate pops for that extra zing.

Thinking what to serve with them? Honestly, a light fruit salad hits the spot. A glass of iced green tea is nice as well.

The subtle flavor compliments the tropical popsicle recipe perfectly.

Storage Like a Pro

Right, so you've made a batch of these easy homemade popsicles . Now what?

For short-term storage, wrap each pop individually in cling film. Pop them back in the freezer for up to a week. That's what I do. After that the texture might change.

Freezing is an option. But the coconut milk popsicles might change a little texture-wise. I'd say they're best eaten within a month, if frozen.

When you're ready to scoff them, just let them sit at room temperature for a minute or two. Trust me , this makes them easier to eat!

Variations on a Theme

Want to get creative? Of course you do!

For a vegan chocolate pineapple pops , make sure your chocolate is vegan. Easy peasy.

Seasonal swaps? Chocolate covered pineapple is great any time of year. But I reckon swapping the pineapple for mango when it's in season is a winner!

Nutrition Nitty-Gritty

Let's keep it simple, eh? These dark chocolate coconut pineapple dessert pops are relatively healthy. They contain fruit and coconut milk (good fats, you know?).

Each pop is about 220 calories. Of course, this depends on the chocolate you use and what you add. They're not exactly kale smoothies. But they're a pretty decent healthy dessert option!

So there you have it! All my extra tips and tricks for the Chocolate Coconut Pineapple Pops recipe. Honestly, they're easier to make than they sound.

Get stuck in and have some fun! You got this!

Delicious Fruit Recipes Chocolate Coconut Pineapple Pops That Will Blow Your Mind

Frequently Asked Questions

My Chocolate Coconut Pineapple Pops are sticking to the molds! Help!

Don't you fret! The easiest way to unmold those beauties is to run the popsicle molds under warm water for about 20-30 seconds. Gently tug on the stick, and they should slide right out. If they're still stubborn, try again for a few more seconds. Nobody wants a broken popsicle!

Can I use frozen pineapple for these Chocolate Coconut Pineapple Pops?

You certainly can! Just make sure to thaw it completely and drain any excess liquid before adding it to the coconut mixture. Using thawed pineapple ensures that the final popsicle isn't too watery. Also, make sure you pat the pineapple dry before adding it.

The chocolate coating on my Chocolate Coconut Pineapple Pops keeps cracking. What am I doing wrong?

Cracked chocolate usually means the popsicles are too cold when they hit the melted chocolate. Let the popsicles sit at room temperature for a minute or two before dipping. Also, adding a tablespoon of coconut oil to the melted chocolate helps create a smoother, more pliable coating, similar to what you'd get in a shop-bought Magnum.

How long will these Chocolate Coconut Pineapple Pops last in the freezer?

These popsicles are best enjoyed within 2-3 months for the best flavor and texture. After that, they might start to develop freezer burn. Wrap each popsicle individually in cling film or store them in an airtight container to help prevent freezer burn and keep them tasting tip-top!

Can I make these Chocolate Coconut Pineapple Pops vegan?

Absolutely! The recipe is already largely vegan-friendly. The key is to use a good quality vegan dark chocolate for the dipping. Loads of brands are available these days – just check the ingredients list to make sure there's no sneaky milk powder hiding in there! The rest of the ingredients are naturally vegan.

I'm watching my sugar intake. Can I reduce the sugar in these Chocolate Coconut Pineapple Pops?

Definitely! You can reduce the sugar to your liking. You could use a sugar substitute like stevia or erythritol, adjusting the amount to match the sweetness of sugar. Alternatively, you can use other substitutes such as honey or agave.
