There is no reason to feel left out when you hear the chiming of the ice cream truck. You can whip up your own low carb popsicle quickly and easily. These rich, tasty chocolate treats are sure to hit the spot on a hot summer day.

Wifezilla's Low Carb Fudge Pops

Ingredients:

• 8oz cream cheese
• 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1/3 cup cocoa powder
• Sweetener to taste

Directions:

With a hand blender, mix the cream cheese and then slowly add the whipping cream. Whip until mixture is nice and creamy. Add cocoa powder and sweetner such as Splenda, erythritol, or stevia to taste, erring on the sweet side. (Once it is frozen, the sweetness fades a bit and a mix that tasted just right in the bowl can end up tasting not quite sweet enough.)

Place in small disposable drinking cups. Add a popsicle stick and freeze for about 2 hours. You can also use the plastic smootie pop sets or tupperware popsicle makers.

This will make anywhere from 3-6 popsicles depending on how large your containers are. My smoothie pop sets makes 4.
