  • Place popsicle moulds on a baking sheet. Add the popsicle sticks before adding liquid. Carefully pour liquid into moulds. Dollop strawberry jam on top. About 2 -3 tsp per popsicle. Transfer to freezer until fully frozen.
  • Place parchment paper onto same baking sheet. Remove ice cream from the moulds and place them on parchment. Smear chia jam on top of each bar and place back in the freezer until jam has hardened.
  • Melt chocolate (I didn’t add coconut oil but you def could. No more than 1 tsp.).
  • Once jam has hardened, dunk bar into melted chocolate. Sprinkle with flaky salt right away as chocolate will set quickly open frozen bars. Drizzle bars with any remaining chocolate. Place back in the freezer until ready to eat.

Notes

I find the lie flat popsicle moulds work best.
Let your popsicle sit at room temperature for several minutes before biting into it. It will soften up making for a more enjoyable experience!
