Ingredients in homemade Oreo popsicles

  • Coconut milk: Coconut milk is the main ingredient in these dairy-free popsicles. Be sure to use full-fat canned coconut milk. It should have around 14 grams of fat per serving. I love and recommend the Native Forest brand from Edward & Sons.
  • Sandwich cookies: We’ll use Oreos, also known as chocolate sandwich cookies, to achieve the classic cookies and cream flavor. Feel free to use any brand as there are several to choose from.
  • Maple syrup: In order to make this dessert a bit healthier, we’ll using real maple syrup instead of refined cane sugar.
  • Vanilla extract: A dash of vanilla extract makes the popsicles sweeter and helps them taste like vanilla ice cream.

How to make cookies and cream popsicles with coconut milk

For the full ingredient measurements and step-by-step instructions, scroll down to view the recipe card at the bottom of the page.

First, place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a sealed bag. Using a rolling pin or a glass, roll/press the cookies to crush them into small bits and pieces. Fill each popsicle mold 3/4 full with the crushed cookies.

Next, vigorously shake the cans of coconut milk. In a large bowl, add coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until smooth.

Then, pour the coconut milk mixture into each popsicle mold. Again, stop when they are about 3/4 full. Tap the popsicle molds against the countertop to remove any air bubbles. Carefully cover and insert popsicle sticks into the molds.

Finally, freeze popsicles for 4 hours or until completely firm. After, gently remove and enjoy!

Recipe variations for coconut milk popsicles

Use your favorite cookies. Instead of chocolate sandwich cookies, you can use another type of crunchy cookie. Try it with chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter sandwich cookies, snickerdoodle cookies, golden Oreos, and more.

Add a chocolate drizzle. After freezing these cookies and cream popsicles, you can decorate them with a dark chocolate drizzle or white chocolate drizzle on top.

Dip them in chocolate. If you’re a major chocolate lover, you can dip the entire popsicle in melted chocolate. Simply fill a large glass with melted chocolate, dip the popsicle into it, tap off any excess, and transfer back into the freezer immediately.

Decorate the popsicles. Whether you add a chocolate drizzle or cover the entire popsicle in chocolate, don’t forget to decorate them! Add rainbow sprinkles, crushed nuts, chocolate chips, and more.

How to store Oreo popsicles

Store these coconut milk popsicles inside a sealed container. Use a piece of parchment paper between each popsicle to prevent them from sticking together. They will keep fresh for up to 2 months in the freezer.
