Keto Fudgesicle Squares! The perfect cold summer treat on a hot day.
These are always my go-to when I've been sitting by the pool all day. You can eat a few and don't have to feel guilty! No sugar, no white flour, but still so tasty!
These remind me of my favourite fudgesicles I used to eat when I was little. The best part about this Keto Fudgesicle square recipe is that they are super easy to make. It only takes a few ingredients and they are a great dish to make with your kids (just make sure to add the hot water your self of course!).
Anyways, I hope you give these a try!
Tools I used to make Keto Fudgesicle Squares
- Low Carb Substitution Guide – This is totally optional but if you like my recipes, I now have a $5 guide available with all of the substitutions I use to create every recipe on my site. You can use this to convert old traditional recipes and create new keto recipes! You can purchase it here and/or read more if you are interested. 🙂 I appreciate your support so much guys!
- Nutritional Food Scale – AKA my best friend. This little buddy has been with me for over 4 years and never fails. Perfect measurements and only needs the batteries replaced maybe once a year!
Tips For Making Keto Fudgesicle Squares
- When you add the gelatin to the heavy cream it will likely begin to harden..DON'T WORRY! It will become smooth again when you add the boiling water.
- I haven't tried these as popsicles yet as I don't own a mould but I think they could definitely work!
- For this recipe you definitely want to use a powdered sweetener. If you use a granular one you will end up with a crunchy texture to your fudgesicle squares.
- My chocolate chips are 2g NET carbs per tablespoon. If you use chocolate chips that are 4g NET carbs per tablespoon your NET carbs per square will be: ~2.8g NET carbs
Ingredients In Keto Fudgesicle Squares
- Gelatin Powder – I actually use the Organika brand most of the time but couldn't find it on the US Amazon store and seeing as most of my followers are from the states, I would recommend you try this one instead (I've also used it before).
- Powdered/Granular Monkfruit Erythritol Sweetener – I use the SoNourished brand for both granular and powdered sweetener and love it! The powdered is the best option for no-bake goods and desserts where you want a very smooth final product. But it bakes well in any recipe. **UPDATE** lately I’ve switched over to THIS brand of powdered sweetener because of trouble ordering the first one so you can order whichever is easier for you!
- I use Krisda chocolate-chips in this recipe as they are just 2 NET carbs per tbsp.. but you can also lily’s chocolate-chips or another brand of sugar-free chocolate chips!
Keto Fudgesicle Squares
Serves: 24 squares
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp unflavoured powdered gelatin, 18g
- 1/2 cup heavy cream, cold 120ml
- 1 cup stevia sweetened chocolate-chips, 250g
- 1 tbsp coconut oil or butter, 15g
- 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp powdered monkfruit/erythritol sweetener, 130g
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water (I just microwave mine in a measuring cup for 2 min)
Directions:
- In a large bowl, add your gelatin and cream. Give it a quick whisk with a fork and set it aside.
- In a microwavable bowl, melt your chocolate chips with the 1 tbsp of coconut oil in 30s increments, stirring in-between until smooth.
- Add the warm chocolate to the gelatin and heavy cream mixture (it will have set a bit by now, that's okay), also add your powdered sweetener, salt and vanilla extract. Mix until a thick chocolate batter begins to form.
- Finally, pour your boiling water in and gently whisk everything until it becomes smooth (be careful not to fling any hot liquid up towards yourself!).
- Pour the liquid mixture into a baking dish lightly greased with butter. (I used a 9×12 inch baking dish but you can use an 8×8 inch pan for thicker squares if you want). Alternatively you can try putting this in mini muffin cups or an ice-cube tray.
- Refrigerate the mixture until set (~2 hours). Then cut lines in the fudge to separate it into squares. BUT don't actually try to lift the squares out. Instead place in back in the freezer this time overnight or for 4-5 hours.
- Now you should be able to pop the squares out with a butter knife. If you find it difficult, try letting them sit on your counter for 5-10min and try again. Enjoy your Keto Fudgesicle Squares!
Store these in an airtight container between layers of parchment paper in the freezer or fridge for a softer texture. You can also place them in a ziplock bag to save freezer space.

Yummy! ♥♥♥ I made these as popsicles! I love to have a popsicle for a snack! Chocolate is my favorite! I quit buying the ones at the store because there are to many artificial ingredients in them! I have had cancer twice and still have a few health problems so I like to eat healthy whole foods with a few snacks thrown in! Thanks so much!

Awe, thank you so much for commenting Sharon! I’m so glad you can still enjoy a sweet chocolate treat! That is truly amazing you were able to beat cancer twice. I’m sure your healthy choices are a huge factor! I wish you all the best and I hope I can continue to provide some healthy alternatives for you in the future. :)
