To all who celebrate, I want to wish you a very Happy 4th of July! To those who don't, I still want to share my popsicles with you :)
Recipe adapted from This Little Piglet
Ingredients
1/2 pound fresh strawberries
1/2 pound fresh blueberries
8 ounces of cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons of milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup powdered sugar
Directions:
Wash berries thoroughly, pat dry, then puree (one fruit at a time) in a food processor or blender until smooth. Place both purees in the refrigerator until ready to use.
In blender or food processor, puree the cream cheese, milk, vanilla, and powdered sugar until smooth.
In paper cups, layer first the blueberry puree, then the cheesecake mixture, and top with the strawberry puree. Insert a popsicle stick into the center of each cup. Place in freezer for 3 hours, or until fully frozen.
Peel off the paper cups when ready to serve.
What are you serving at your 4th of July cookout today?
I love you so much right now. The only thing is, I would eat them ALL :)
ReplyDeleteNow there is a combination i never would have thought of
ReplyDeleteI do adore me blueberries but I refuse to eat sweet cheese :) Can I have mine with cream? :)
ReplyDeleteYou can have yours any way you like Dez. Though I can't get over how you don't eat cream cheese. It is a staple here in my house. I love, love, love it!
DeleteThose sound good! I'm sure my boys would love them! I have yet to decide what I'm making. I should get on that.
ReplyDeleteI like that everything is real. Pinned it. :)
ReplyDeleteMe too. We have been making a lot of our own frozen pops since last summer. They taste so much better when you have real fruit, and you can cut out all the processed sugary stuff too!
Deletethey do look good
ReplyDeleteI want you to share those with me too. I guess they would probably melt by the time they got here though. Going to have to pin this one. Happy Independence Day to you and your family! Hope you have a wonderful celebration!
ReplyDeleteThanks Karen! I hope you had a great Canada Day!
DeleteThose look so lickable! They were?
ReplyDeleteMMMMMm... I am getting so hungry just looking at those. I have a Granddaughter who loves cream cheese.
ReplyDeleteThose look amazingly delicious!
