Instructions
- For the No-Churn Ice Cream, place cream in blender container; cover. Blend on high until stiff peaks form, about 30 to 45 seconds. Add remaining ingredients, except crushed red pepper; cover. Blend on high speed until well blended and slightly thickened, scraping down sides as needed. Set aside
- For the Sweet Heat Raspberry Swirl, place raspberries, RedHot sauce and cayenne in blender container; cover. Puree until smooth.
- Fill 16 ice-pop molds or small paper cups about 1/4 of the way with ice cream mixture. Layer each with 1 tablespoon (15 ml) raspberry mixture, swirling into ice cream layer with a small knife. Repeat ice cream and raspberry layers, ending with a third ice cream layer. Freeze 1 hour. Insert wooden stick or straw into each mold. Freeze at least 2 hours longer or until completely frozen.
- For the Raspberry Chocolate Shell, mix white chocolate chips and coconut oil in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH 1 minute, stirring every 20 seconds, until melted and smooth. Stir in food color. Cool just to room temperature.
- Carefully remove ice cream bars from molds. Sprinkle evenly with crushed red pepper. Dip bars in shell mixture to coat with thin, even layer. Place on parchment-lined shallow baking pan. Sprinkle with additional ground cayenne and crushed freeze-dried raspberries, if desired. Return to freezer at least 30 minutes or until ready to serve.
Test Kitchen Tips: No molds? No problem! Pour ice cream base into plastic wrap-lined 13x9-inch baking pan. Drop Raspberry mixture by the spoonful over base. Swirl mixture with knife to create a marble effect. Freeze at least 6 hours. When ready to serve, scoop ice cream and pour Raspberry Chocolate Shell over top.
