Who needs the ice cream truck...

when you have homemade popsicles in the freezer! Walked into the grocery store the other day and the berries were buy one, get one free...I HAD to buy some. Philip asked me what I was going to do with them and I didn't know...but I knew I would think of something. So I decided to make popsicles!


These popsicles were delicious! I cannot wait to make them again. I think next time I will add a banana to them as well.





Strawberry-Cream Fruit Pops
(Source: MyRecipes.com via Sunset Magazine)


Ingredients:

2 cups fresh strawberries (rinsed and hulled)
1/2 cup light sour cream
2-3 Tbls sugar
2 tsp lemon juice


Preparation
1. In a blender, whirl 2 cups rinsed, hulled strawberries until smooth. Push through a fine strainer into a 1-quart glass measure; discard seeds. Return berry purée to blender and whirl in 1/2 cup light sour cream, 2 to 3 tablespoons sugar (to taste), and 2 teaspoons lemon juice until smooth.
2. Pour fruit mixture into 6 to 8 juice bar molds (with a 1/4-1/3 cup capacity). Attach covers firmly and insert sticks, leaving 1 1/2 to 2 inches of each sticking out. Set molds in freezer, making sure they're level and upright, and freeze until firm, at least 3 hours, or up to 2 weeks.
3. To unmold, run warm water over the molds up to the rim, just until pops are released from sides, 5 to 15 seconds. Remove the covers and pull out the pops.
