Ingredients
150ml Co-op Fairtrade espresso
2 tbsp Co-op Fairtrade demerara sugar
200ml Co-op whole milk
2 tbsp Nestlé Carnation condensed milk
50ml Co-op double cream
150ml Co-op Delaney’s Country Cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
50g Co-op white cooking chocolate
1 tbsp Co-op vegetable oil
Method
Combine the espresso with the demerara sugar until dissolved
Allow to cool, then stir in the whole milk, Nestlé Carnation condensed milk, double cream, Country Cream and vanilla extract until well combined
Divide between six lolly moulds, leaving a 0.5cm space at the top for expansion
Insert the sticks and freeze overnight
Next day, prepare the decoration
Line a baking tray, then put the white cooking chocolate and vegetable oil in a heatproof bowl over a pan of shallow, gently simmering water and stir until smooth
Take off the heat and allow to cool slightly
Dip the lolly moulds briefly in hot water to release them, then lay out on the tray. Working quickly, drizzle over the chocolate mixture, then freeze until set
