Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cold heavy cream (or up to 1 cup/120-240 ml for creamier popsicles)
- 2 cups whole milk Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1/3 cup honey (adjust to taste)
- 3 cups fruit of your choice (e.g., berries, mango, peaches) or other additions such as chocolate chips, mochi, chopped Oreos, etc.
Instructions
- Whip the Cream: Using a whisk, whip the cold heavy cream until it just begins to form lines and thickens, stopping before soft peaks form. This creates a creamy texture without too much air.
- Combine Ingredients: Gently fold the Greek yogurt and honey into the whipped cream. Then, fold in your choice of fruit or mix-ins carefully to maintain the creaminess.
- Prepare Molds: Ensure your popsicle molds are completely dry by using a thin cloth and a chopstick to dry inside each mold to prevent ice crystals from forming on your popsicles.
- Fill Molds: Pour the mixture into the dry molds, using a chopstick or extra popsicle stick to press down and eliminate any air pockets. Tap the molds gently on the counter to bring any bubbles to the surface.
- Add Sticks & Freeze: Insert popsicle sticks into the center of each mold and transfer to the freezer. Freeze for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until fully set and firm.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of heavy cream to control the creaminess of the popsicles.
- Using dry molds is crucial to avoid ice crystals forming on the popsicles’ surface.
- Feel free to customize with various fruits or mix-ins like chocolate chips or chopped cookies for added texture and flavor.
- For a sweeter popsicle, increase the honey slightly or use vanilla-flavored yogurt.
- Allow popsicles to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before removing from molds for easier release.
