Champurrado Paletas

With all the flavors of winter but in a cool, refreshing popsicle.  These champurrado paletas will keep you happy when you’re missing your favorite wintertime drink. 

Ingredients

Scale

1/2 pound prepared unseasoned corn masa

1 (4-inch) cinnamon stick

3 ounces piloncillo

1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk

3 cups whole milk

2 (90 gram each) Mexican chocolate tablets

Instructions

Place masa and 1 cup water in blender.  Blend until smooth.  Set aside.

Place 1 1/2 cups water in large pot over medium heat.  When water begins to boil, add cinnamon stick and piloncillo.  Decrease to a low simmer.  Stir to dissolve piloncillo. 

When piloncillo has completely dissolved, add milks and chocolate tablets.  Heat for 10 minutes, stirring constantly to dissolve chocolate. 

Add masa mixture through a strainer.  Stir continuously until mixture begins to boil and thicken.  Remove from heat and let cool completely. 

Spoon mixture into popsicle molds.  Cover and insert popsicle sticks.  Freeze at least 4 hours or until firm.
