Instructions
Make the pops:
Combine all of the ingredients for the pops in a blender and blend on high until smooth.
Divide among popsicle molds, insert sticks, and freeze until solid or for at least 5 hours.
Prepare the topping:
In a small pot over very low heat, combine the cacao powder, coconut oil, and maple syrup.
Whisk until melted and smooth.
Unmold the ice cream pops. (Run the molds under warm water to help loosen them.)
Lay the pops on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Drizzle the chocolate sauce over the pops.
Immediately sprinkle the walnuts, cacao nibs, and hemp seeds on top. (Work quickly. If you take too long, the chocolate sauce will harden too quickly and the topping will not adhere to the pops.)
Put the pan in the freezer and chill until the chocolate sauce sets and holds the toppings in place, about 10 minutes.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to serve. Enjoy within 3 days for best flavor.
