Layered Watermelon Ice Pops Total: 7 hr 25 min Active: 25 min Yield: 6 frozen pops Level: Intermediate Ingredients 3 cups seedless watermelon, cubed and chilled 1/2 cup superfine sugar 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips 1/4 cup coconut milk 1 ripe avocado, diced Juice of 1 lime Directions Special equipment: six 3- to 4-ounce ice-pop molds with wooden or plastic ice-pop sticks (without guards) Puree the watermelon with 1/4 cup of the sugar in a blender. Pour into a medium bowl and freeze, stirring every 30 minutes, until the puree resembles a slushy mixture, about 2 hours. Fold the chocolate chips into the watermelon slush and pour into six 3- to 4-ounce ice-pop molds, filling them about three-quarters full. Insert wooden or plastic (without guards) ice-pop sticks. Freeze until the mixture is just slightly set, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the coconut milk and 2 tablespoons of sugar in a small bowl and refrigerate. After 30 minutes, pour the coconut milk mixture on top of the watermelon mixture, leaving a 1/4-inch headspace at the top. Freeze until the mixture is just slightly set, about 30 minutes. Right before the coconut milk mixture is just set, puree the avocado, lime juice, 1/4 cup of water and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar in a blender until smooth and creamy. Top the coconut layer with the avocado mixture and freeze until solid, about 4 hours. Let sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes before unmolding. Copyright 2017 Television Food Network, G.P.
