I don’t know if Fat Elvis is just a Wisconsin thing or if there are Fat Elvis foods everywhere, but back in Madison, there was a restaurant that served Fat Elvis cake and an ice cream shop that made Fat Elvis ice cream. Although one might expect bacon to be involved somehow, the Fat Elvis combo is chocolate, peanut butter, and banana. Any two of these ingredients go well together, but combining all three makes for a trifecta of deliciousness (and yes, I just wrote about my love of this combination in my dessert panini recipe).
I’ve been making these pudding pops for a while (remember back in January when I was begging everyone to vote for them in the ZenSoy recipe contest?) and they’re always a favorite of ours. I made a few adjustments to the recipe to make these pudding pops work better with my Zoku Quick Pop Maker
Of course, if you don’t have a Zoku, you can make these in regular molds too–the chocolate banana mixture is thick enough that you should still be able to get the layers to work. Oh, and I’m not using natural peanut butter to be snobby and pretentious–you need to be able to pour the peanut butter into the molds and the regular peanut butter doesn’t soften at room temperature the way the natural kind does.
Fat Elvis Pudding Pops combine chocolate pudding, bananas, and peanut butter--really, is there any better flavor combination? I don't think so! These can be made in a Zoku Quick Pop Maker or traditional popsicle molds.
Ingredients
- 1 banana, sliced
- 1/4 c. chocolate milk (I use soymilk)
- 2 chocolate pudding cups (I use ZenSoy)
- 3 tbsp. natural peanut butter, room temperature
Instructions
- Combine first three ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour 1/3 of chocolate mixture in molds, top with 1/2 of the softened peanut butter, another 1/3 of the chocolate mixture, the remaining peanut butter, and finally the last third of the chocolate mixture. These take about 15 minutes to set in the Zoku--if you're not using the Zoku, freeze until solid.

The cafe I work at in Ontario, Canada serves a Fat Elvis sandwich, it's very popular!
I am just going to freeze this in a big bowl and probably eat the whole thing in one sitting.
I cannot get enough of this flavor trio and the ingredients are too perfectly simple…a must make for sure!
Well, the good thing about it is if you do eat the whole thing in one sitting, it’s really not that bad for you.
My hubby is from WI … he says these Fat Elvis Pops are great! I never heard of them. Thanks for the recipe
I’m trying these and spiced squash pancakes.
I hope you like the spiced squash pancakes if you make them–like I said in the post, we didn’t care for them at all!
Hey there
I know! I’m a hard head … they just sound good to me, so I will come back and let you know when I do. I haven’t been to the store yet … LOL, I’ll be in touch … Hugs & Blessings to your family!
Oh no, these popsicles are really good! It was the squash pancakes in my WIATW post that we didn’t care for. They were SO gingery. :/
