Summer isn’t quite complete without everyone’s favorite summer treat – ice pops. But why buy when you can make? Store bought ice pops are loaded with sugar and calories. So instead, cool down and take some of the sizzle out of summer with these refreshing homemade chocolate popsicles.
Chocolate and banana are an awesome combo! Try to use very ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the better the flavor of the ice pops.
