Mint Chocolate Chip Greek Yoghurt Popsicles – Deliciously creamy mint popsicles studded with chocolate chips and dipped in a milk chocolate magic shell!
If you don’t know by now, one of my favourite flavour combinations is mint and chocolate, so I course I thought about that combination first whilst coming up with a popsicle flavour.
So, today I bring you my scrumptiously creamy Mint Chocolate Chip Greek Yoghurt Popsicles!
To top these popsicles off, I’ve dipped them in milk chocolate melted with a little coconut oil. The chocolate hardens beautifully on cold desserts, and complements these mint popsicles wonderfully.
How to make Mint Chocolate Chip Greek Yoghurt Popsicles
Ingredients you’ll need:
- vanilla flavoured greek-style yoghurt
- milk (any kind)
- peppermint extract
- honey
- chocolate chips
- green food colouring (optional)
For the chocolate topping:
- milk chocolate (you can use dark, or semi-sweet!)
- coconut oil
- vanilla extract
To make these popsicles, simply whisk together yoghurt, milk, mint extract, and honey. Add enough green food colouring to reach your desired shade.
Stir in the chocolate chips, then pour the mixture evenly into 6 popsicle molds. Sprinkle on some more chocolate chips if desired.
Freeze for 2 hours before putting wooden popsicle sticks into the centres. Freeze for a further 4 hours or overnight.
The printable recipe card with the FULL list of ingredients and instructions can be found at the bottom of this post.
NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements.
Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.
These Mint Chocolate Chip Greek Yoghurt Popsicles are:
- wonderfully creamy
- loaded with mint flavour
- topped with a delicious chocolate shell
- perfect for a summer treat!
How long will these mint popsicles last? These popsicles can be kept frozen for up to 1 month – but they won’t last that long!

Good recipe though I used my tried-and-true recipe for the chocolate glaze.

It quite possibly could have been my own mistake, but these did not taste right. I feel like maybe the Greek yogurt overpowered the honey???

Hi Jenna! The honey is only for sweetness. If anything, the mint should be mostly what you taste along with the vanilla Greek yogurt. You could try adjusting to your taste! :)

I've been trying to make my own healthier ice cream so this looks great! I was just wondering what the honey is there for, how does it affect the overall popsicle?

The honey is the sweetener in this recipe :)

May I ask how strong the Greek yogurt flavor is? It can be a strong taste but I'm thinking perhaps the chocolate and mint overpower it a bit? Sounds delicious

Greek yoghurt is quite tangy, and if you don't like that, you can simply use plain yoghurt :) Vanilla greek yoghurt is less tangy and more sweet, and pairs well with the mint and chocolate.
