Creamy Popsicles

I am sad that summer is over and wanted to share the popsicles that I developed the first of summer.  My family were the testers and declared them great! They are easy to make. My husband loves the strawberry creamy popsicle, it reminds him of his families creamy strawberry birthday cake. My niece Emily helped me develop the orange creamy popsicle, it is her favorite.

Strawberry Creamy Popsicles

10 ounces strawberries

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

1- 16.9 fl oz bottle lemonade vitamin water zero (sweetened with erythritol and stevia)

3 TBL healthy gelatin (I use Bernard Jensen's)

1/8 tsp Bolivian stevia (this is equal to 1/4 cup of sugar sweetness)

In a glass measuring cup or bowl soften the gelatin in 1 cup of the vitamin water for 5 minutes. Microwave the gelatin for 1 minute to melt, don't get it too hot.( If you don't like to use the microwave, boil a small pot of water and place the container of softened gelatin into the boiling water to melt the gelatin.)

Place all of your ingredients into a blender or ninja and blend until smooth. You are using the entire bottle of vitamin water. Adjust the stevia to your liking. Pour the mixture into your popsicle molds. Place into freezer until frozen, about 4 hours. I used twin pop molds which required patience to remove the popsicles from. I had to let it sit out at room temperature for about 10 minutes until the popsicles would come out.  I like the inexpensive popsicle molds that I got at Ikea better, the popsicles come out easier.



This makes several batches of popsicles, store your unfrozen mix in your refrigerator. It will set up because of the gelatin in it. Gently melt it to make more popsicles.

Orange Creamy Popsicles

2 oranges, pealed and sectioned

1 cup orange vitamin water zero (sweetened with erythritol and stevia)

3 TBL healthy gelatin (I use Bernard Jensen's)

1- 13.5 fl oz can of coconut milk

1/8 tsp Bolivian stevia

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 drops orange essential oil (I like DoTerra)

In a glass measuring cup or bowl soften the gelatin in 1 cup of the vitamin water for 5 minutes. Microwave the gelatin for 1 minute to melt, don't get it too hot.( If you don't like to use the microwave, boil a small pot of water and place the container of softened gelatin into the boiling water to melt the gelatin.)

Place all of your ingredients into a blender or ninja, blend until smooth. If you have a great blender you might not need this next step. I just have a ninja, my husband and grandson did not like the pieces of membrane in the popsicle. Now I strain it though a fine mesh strainer to create a smooth creamy. Adjust for sweetness and if it has enough orange oil. Pour into your popsicle molds.  Place into freezer until frozen, about 4 hours. I used twin pop molds which required patience to remove the popsicles from. I had to let it sit out at room temperature for about 10 minutes until the popsicles would come out. I like the inexpensive popsicle molds that I got at Ikea better, the popsicles come out easier.
