Behind the popsicles is a white cup decorated with large colorful stars in blue, orange, pink, and green.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup whipped topping
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons Nutella

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together whipped topping, 1/2 cup milk, and 1/4 cup Nutella until well combined. In a separate small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons Nutella and 1 teaspoon milk to create the Nutella swirl.
  2. Step 2: Spread a heaping teaspoon of Nutella from the swirl mixture evenly on the bottom of six 3-ounce disposable cups.
  3. Step 3: Divide the whipped topping mixture evenly into each cup over the Nutella layer.
  4. Step 4: Cover each cup with a small square of aluminum foil. Using a paring knife, cut a small slit in the center of each foil-covered cup and insert a wooden popsicle stick through the slit.
  5. Step 5: Freeze the pops for 3 hours or until completely firm.
  6. Step 6: To serve, snip off the top part of the cup and peel away the remaining cup to enjoy your Nutella Pops.

Tips & Variations

  • Use full-fat milk for a creamier texture, or substitute with almond milk for a dairy-free option.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon to the whipped topping for a warm flavor twist.
  • Mix in chopped nuts or mini chocolate chips for added crunch before freezing.
  • If disposable cups aren’t available, silicone popsicle molds work great for easy removal.

Storage

Store Nutella Pops in the freezer in their cups or molds, covered tightly with foil or plastic wrap, for up to 1 week. Re-freeze after serving any partial pops. Enjoy them cold straight from the freezer—no reheating needed.

How to Serve

The image shows two small ice cream cups on a white marbled surface. Each cup has two layers: a thick, light brown, airy and textured top layer of ice cream, and a smooth, dark brown bottom layer resembling chocolate. One cup stands upright with a wooden stick inserted in the middle, and the other cup lies on its side showing the smooth chocolate bottom. The background is minimal with a soft, light gray tone.

FAQs

Can I make Nutella Pops without whipped topping?

Whipped topping helps create a creamy texture and lightness in these pops, but you can substitute with Greek yogurt or a dairy-free whipped alternative for a different variation.

How do I prevent ice crystals from forming on my pops?

Make sure the mixtures are well combined and freeze them quickly in a single layer without gaps. Covering the pops tightly with foil minimizes moisture exposure that causes ice crystals.

Scale

Nutella Pops Ingredients

  • 1 cup whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup Nutella
  • 2 tablespoons Nutella
  • 1 teaspoon milk
  • 6 (3-ounce) Dixie cups
  • 6 wooden popsicle sticks

Instructions

  1. Prepare the base mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup whipped topping, 1/2 cup milk, and 1/4 cup Nutella until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
