Fudgesicles or Chocolate Popsicles; 2 Recipes (Dairy, Gluten/Grain and Refined Sugar Free)

It has been so hot out here these last few weeks so we have been making a lot of popsicles.  I have been eating them for breakfast, snacks and desserts; not always all in the same day ;)  I am in love with chocolate so these have been quite popular.  I tried two different chocolate recipes and both are equally delicious.

2. Pour into popsicle molds and place in freezer until completely frozen solid.
