Coffee popsicles are, simply put, amazing! They taste like rich, creamy coffee ice cream. Skip a mug and have one for breakfast, or they're a delightful dessert or snack on a warm or hot day. And this sophisticated popsicle is perfect for casual summer entertaining.

Coffee is delicious in all sorts of forms . . . .

In a cozy mug with cream.
Whipped to perfection inside a cake.
Blended into a rich crunchy cookie.
In a chocolatey brownie.
Or in a frozen pie.
And now a creamy coffee popsicle makes the list!

I've been perfecting all of my recipes with coffee for years, and this simple three-ingredient recipe is nothing short of dreamy.

So if you're a coffee lover like me, you're in for a truly scrumptious treat.

This recipe is fantastic because from it you can make popsicles, ice cubes and drinks.

Ingredients

instant espresso powder (So technically, you could call these Espresso Popsicles. Espresso powder is made from darkly roasted coffee beans.)
sweetened condensed milk
milk (whole, low-fat or non-fat)

How to Make Creamy Coffee Popsicles

(More detailed instructions are in the recipe card below.)

- In a large pitcher (or bowl), combine espresso powder with sweetened condensed milk and regular milk. Whisk until smooth.

- Pour the mixture into 6 (4-ounce) popsicle molds and freeze overnight.

Recipe Tips and Substitutions

When you want to release the popsicles from their molds, be sure to run them under hot water for a at least a few seconds. The sweetened condensed milk makes them a bit harder to release than fruit juice popsicles.
My favorite instant espresso is Medaglia D'Oro. You can almost always find this (or other brands) at a large grocery store. If you can't find it, you can substitute it with instant coffee, but use about 50% more so the flavor is as strong as the espresso powder.
I've made these with both low-fat and non-fat milk, and both work well, so choose what you like.

If you’re a coffee lover, these coffee popsicles are a must to add to your collection.
