Sweet Tooth Satisfaction # 3 ~ Puddin' Pops & My Favorite Things Friday # 6
OK so who misses those pudding pops?
Ya know the ones Bill Cosby did commercials for so very long ago,
well how would you like to make some of your very own?
This was fun. I came across the recipe from A Few Shortcuts
Here's what you need
Small box of instant Jello (we used cheesecake flavor)
Popsicle molds (got this in the $1 section at Target
Cold milk
Food coloring
First put your powdered jello into a bowl, & add 2 cups of cold milk
And here's where you have your helpers STIR
Put it in the fridge for 10 min so it sets up a little
And divide into bowls then add your food coloring (drops are per your own preference as to how many)
Then spoon the layers into the molds (you could use paper cups & popsicle sticks too)
It can get messy but put the sticks in & freezer for 5 or more hours to set
I let them freeze overnight for an afternoon treat the next day
Tip: Let them thaw 10 min to easily remove your pops or this will happen.
So remove them carefully from the molds(I ran them under some warm water to help them come out...on the sticks)
=D
Enjoy!

Hi, Iffy -
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the feature! I hope you and your family will love the copycat McGriddles.
I love how colorful your pudding pops are. Mine were always kinda plain colored - lol! I didn't do any fancy coloring. Looks like your kids had fun making them (as well as eating them). :)
Cheers,
Tracy Screaming Sardine
Forgot to add that you have the link party starting next month, not today. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the feature of my fabric covered notebook! I hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDelete@Screaming SardineTracy, Haha thank you for letting me know, I was in a hurry trying to get the party started that I didn't notice the month...too funny. It should be fixed now & yes we had fun with the pops. I can't wait to try out some other kinds too.
ReplyDeleteI used to love pudding pops and I think I have some instant pudding in the pantry...this will be a fun treat for a summer day!
