Summer Popsicles
Kids love popsicles in the summertime. Try making these with your
children:
~Freeze applesauce in popsicle molds.
~Mix fruit or jam into yogurt. Freeze in small, snack sized
Ziploc bags for frozen yogurt on the go.
Cut a hole in the end of the bag for easy access/eating.
~Mix gelatin and freeze. Add gummie fish
or worms before freezing for added fun.
~Freeze syrup from canned fruit.
~ Add food coloring or sprinkles to yogurt or softened ice
cream for added pizzazz. Then freeze in popsicle molds.
~When you have leftover jam or jelly, put 1/4 cup of hot water
in the jar and shake well. Pour into popsicle molds and freeze.
~If jelly or jam doesn't set up well, use for popsicles
or add more water, boil and make syrup.
~Make a batch of pudding. Add coconut, nuts, marshmallows,
crushed cookies or sprinkles if desired. Pour into molds.
Freeze several hours until firm.
~Stick a toothpick in the center of blackberries,
strawberries, raspberries or sliced bananas.
Dip in chocolate if desired. Freeze on a tray.
Once frozen, store in freezer bags.
~For easy snow cones, freeze orange juice (or any other
flavored juice) in ice cube trays. Store frozen juice cubes
in a plastic bag. Blend 5 cubes in the blender until they
have a shaved ice consistency. The shaved ice will
keep its consistency if kept frozen in a container.
~For watermelon popsicles, blend one cup each watermelon
chunks (seeds removed), orange juice and water. Blend well.
Then pour and freeze into molds.
~For strawberry popsicles, blend 2 cups strawberries, 1 cup
vanilla ice cream or yogurt, 4 cups orange juice and 2
tablespoons sugar. Blend smooth. Pour into molds and freeze.
~For banana popsicles, dissolve one 3 oz. package strawberry
gelatin with one cup boiling water. In a blender, mix gelatin,
1 banana and 1 cup yogurt or ice cream. Blend well and pour into
molds
