The idea behind these pops was to do a twist on the traditional fudge pop. I wanted them to have a similar creamy texture, but I didn’t want the mint flavor to be overwhelmed by lots of chocolate. So I swapped traditional chocolate for white chocolate, and used a mixture of cream and milk to make them extra-smooth. Buuuut I didn’t ACTUALLY want them smooth, so I threw in lots of chunks of mint Oreos, or as I like to call them, the devil’s cookie. (Seriously, try to eat just 1. JUST TRY.)
The result is a luscious popsicle with a refreshing mint flavor and a melt-in-your-mouth texture, with lots of crunchy cookie bits to jazz it up. It’s basically my ideal popsicle. I also love the thought of dipping these in a thin layer of chocolate, and might give that a try next time…you know, when I’m not packing to go on a trip 20 minutes after photographing them.
