Recipes :: Frozen Pops (round 2)


Pop-ular Mechanics
Follow these directions for all recipes unless noted:
1. Pour treat mixture into eight standard 3-oz pop molds; insert plastic sticks or cover with foil and make slits for wooden sticks.
2. Freeze until completely solid, 3 to 4 hours.
3. Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before removing. If pops are hard to get out, run molds under warm water for 10 seconds.

Iced Cocoa
1. Mix together 2 tbs unsweetened cocoa powder and 2 tbs sugar.
2. Add 2 tbs water and stir into a paste.
3. Then mix in 2 3/4 cups reduced-fat milk.

Fruit Smoothie
1. In a blender, puree 1 1/2 cups of strawberries, 1 banana, and 1 cup low-fat yogurt.
2. Thinly slice another banana. 
3. Press banana slices against the sides of molds; fill with berry mixture.

Cupcake
1. Shake sprinkles into eight silicone or foil cupcake wrappers.
2. Spread 2 to 3 tsp nutella on the bottom and partially up the side of each wrapper.
3. Freeze until hardened, 1 to 2 hours.
4. Fill with low-fat banana yogurt.
5. Cover with foil, make a slit, and insert a wooden pop stick.
6. Freeze 3 to 4 hours or until solid. 
7. Peel off wrappers, thaw a little, and serve.
