Lavon and Miss NiNi talk about making popsicles, cool treats for summertime.

CHOCO-STRAWB MINI POPSICLES

Ingredients:

1 -1/4 t. cocoa powder
2 T. chocolate spread (Nutella, Hershey’s chocolate spread, Biscoff Cookie Spread)
1 c. milk (any type of milk you PREFER—I used whole dairy milk because I wanted a creamier
texture.)
4 medium size fresh strawberries, thinly sliced (may substitute whole frozen strawberries)

Method:

In a blender, blend cocoa powder, chocolate spread and milk. Line sides of popsicle molds or 5-oz. paper cups with thinly sliced strawberries. Slowly pour chocolate mixture into molds, tryingto avoid strawberry slices from moving. Place in freezer until slushy. Insert popsicle stick orsturdy plastic straw that has been cut to desired handle length into slushy mixture. If stick/straw tends to lean in the mixture, straighten it and recheck in about 15 minutes. May need to keep rechecking until mixture is solid enough to hold stick/straw vertically. Freeze until solid, at least 4 hours before releasing from molds and serving. To unmold, I removed popsicles in cups from freezer about 10 minutes before unmolding, allowing the popsicles to still be firm but easy to withdraw from the paper cup. Makes 4 small popsicles.

NOTE from Miss NiNi: These popsicles are so refreshing! Fresh strawberries are abundant right now and were my fruit of choice. However, other fresh or whole frozen fruits can be added for a different taste. Word of caution: Might want to keep the paper cup close by once the popsicle has been removed as it’s great for catching drips—especially if little ones are enjoying these treats!

Other fruit flavor combinations:

CANTALOUPE POPSicles

½ heaping c. ripe cantaloupe, chopped into small chunks
½ c. milk

Blend ingredients together; pour into molds or small paper cups; freeze at least 4 hours, inserting stick into mixture when slushy in order to hold stick vertically.

BLUEBERRY CHIA POPSicles

1 c. fresh blueberries
½ banana
1 T. Chia seeds
¾ c. milk

Blend ingredients together; pour into popsicle molds or small paper cups; freeze for at least 4 hours, inserting stick into mixture when slushy in order to hold stick vertically.
