These easy Creamy Chocolate Walnut Popsicles are rich, fudgy and so incredibly delicious. So, I turned one of my favorite smoothies into nutty, chocolatey popsicles. I did make a few changes to the original smoothie recipe (click [here](https://mondaydreams.com/2022/05/16/chocolate-walnut-smoothie/) for the recipe) and I’m so happy with the result. This is a sweet and luscious treat that’s healthy-ish at the same time. These vegan popsicles are dairy-free, refined sugar-free and loaded with antioxidants and healthy fats. Raw cacao is very high in antioxidants and walnuts are packed with minerals and healthy fats (including omega 3’s). I also added a little maca powder (completely optional) to boost the nutrition of these already nourishing popsicles. These creamy pops could also be a delicious gluten-free dessert for someone with gluten allergies or sensitivities. And did I mention they are super easy to make and require only 5 ingredients?! What’s not to love? Toasted walnuts add such a beautiful depth of flavor. Please don’t use raw walnuts, roasting the walnuts in the oven only takes 7-10 minutes and makes such a difference. Juan and I love the deeply rich taste of these fudgy popsicles and I hope you love it too. They are totally share-worthy and perfect for warm summer days.
