Dessert Popsicles (Cheesecake, Coffee, and Chocolate)

j
It is sweet summer time and what is summer with out the homemade Popsicle. There are millions of Popsicle recipes out there. Trust me I look for them every year. But this one I invented myself! It came from the thought of how much I love dessert and coffee!

1 package of sugar free instant cheesecake pudding mix
1 small (5oz. i think) can of evaporated milk (your going to use a little here in the cheesecake pudding and the rest in the chocolate)
1/2 c of half and half
1 1/4 c of whole milk
 1 package of devils food chocolate pudding mix ( i used half of the package so i didn't waste more pudding)
1/2 c of left over coffee from this morning
rest of the can of evaporated milk from the cheese cake pudding mix
mini semisweet chocolate chips
Popsicle molds

Okay so in the bottom of your Popsicle molds you sprinkle about a tablespoon of  you mini chocolate chips. Then we mix up the cheesecake pudding mix. I made the whole package because I already have to wait on the Popsicle to freeze so I might as well have a snack while I wait. To make the cheesecake pudding mix you will need a large mixing bowl to pour all the ingredients into and a whisk. Pour in your pudding mix and in a liquid measuring cup pour in your milk and half and half and then add in the evaporated milk till you almost hit the two cup line. Whisk this in with your pudding mix and when all the lumps are gone pour till about the half way line in your Popsicle molds and  then tap the mold against the counter hard to make sure the pudding is covering your chocolate chips really well. Put extra cheesecake pudding the fridge to set up. Now lets mix up the chocolate/coffee mixture.  In a bowl, pour your 1/2 a pouch of pudding mix and add the coffee and start whisking them together then slowly pour in your evaporated milk and keep on whisking. if its too think you can add a little milk till you get a soupy consistency. Pour this on top of the cheesecake pudding in your Popsicle molds and again tap this out against the counter. Make sure your pops are just about completely full but leave enough room to slide in your sticks!
Place in the freezer for 6 hours or overnight!! 
To release them simply ...run under cool water for about 30 sec. then pull em out!!
